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.

Ice hockey

After a season propping up the Premier Division, Newcastle Warriors have made it to the championship play-offs at the expense of Milton Keynes Kings, writes Steve Pinder.

The two sides met midweek with Warriors winning 13-4, but over the weekend Kings lost twice while Warriors beat Slough Jets 7-3. That sees Kings and Jets continue their season in the play-offs against the top six of the First Division, with the two group winners achieving or maintaining Premier status.

Basingstoke Bison frightened both weekend visitors. Durham Wasps scraped home 4-3, while Nottingham Panthers won 5-4. The two are drawn together in Group A of the play-offs.
