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.

Uefa have banned Rangers fans from one European away game after finding the Glasgow club guilty of two counts of sectarian chanting in Europa Legue games against PSV Eindhoven last month.

They were handed a two-match ban for away games, with one game suspended for three years. For games at Ibrox a one-game ban has also been suspended for three years.

Rangers were also fined £70,000; £35,000 each for the home and the away punishments.
