Your support helps us to tell the story

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.

Phil Mickelson mixed seven birdies with three bogeys as he took the lead with a 68 in the second round of the Mercedes Championship in Carlsbad, California. The 23-year-old American was followed by his countryman Fred Couples, the Fijian Vijay Singh, and Grant Waite, of New Zealand, who were tied a shot behind on 139. In George, South Africa, Zimbabwe's Tony Johnstone had a one- stroke lead after the third round of the Bell's Cup, hitting a 68. He led the South African Ben Fouchee on 202.
