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.

Donald Trump, Jeb Bush and Ted Cruz will go head-to-head tonight alongside seven other Republican party presidential candidates in the first live TV clash on the GOP's road to the White House.

The main debate will be broadcast live from Cleveland at 9pm Eastern Time on the FOX News Channel, according to the network.

The outspoken tycoon Donald Trump is heading in the opinion polls and has therefore secured a position at the centre of the podium. He will be debating with nine other Republican hopefuls.
