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.

Your support makes all the difference.

Marcus Trescothick made his return to competitive cricket yesterday, only to find his thunder stolen by Craig Spearman.

Trescothick who withdrew from England's tour of India with a virus, although the reason was originally given as personal problems played for Somerset against Gloucestershire on the County Championship's first day. He let two edges from Spearman who made 109 through his fingers as he stood at first slip. Richard Johnson was the unlucky bowler.

Trescothick partly redeemed himself by catching Matt Windows off Andy Caddick for 20 on a rain-interrupted day that saw the hosts close on 262 for 4.
