From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

The Tory MP Nadine Dorries has called for Baroness Warsi to stand down pending an inquiry into whether the party co-chairman broke the Ministerial Code.

Lady Warsi was referred to the Prime Minister's adviser on ministerial interests after it emerged that she invited a business partner on an official trip in 2010.

"She is probably completely innocent, but she should step aside while the investigation takes place," Ms Dorries told the Financial Times.
