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.

QPR have completed the signing of Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips.

The 29-year-old becomes the fourth major signing of the Tony Fernandes era, following Joey Barton, Luke Young and Armand Traore to west London.

The transfer brings an end to Wright-Phillips' second spell at City and he admits Rangers' ambition helped sway him.

"I am very delighted at the moment, I am just really looking forward to it all kicking off," he told Sky Sports News.

"After speaking to the manager and hearing the direction this club are going in, I wanted to help that happen."
