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.

Porto sealed the Portuguese title for the second successive year when they beat Salgueiros 2-0 at home on Sunday. The win left Porto, who are coached by the former England manager, Bobby Robson, 13 points clear of second-placed Benfica, who are unable to catch Porto with only four matches to play after their 0-0 draw with the bottom team, Campomaiorense.

The United States' Major League Soccer witnessed its first shoot-out on Sunday after Dallas Burn drew 0-0 with San Jose Clash. Dallas won the shoot-out.

Bolton's final home game of the season against fellow Premiership strugglers Southampton on Saturday 27 April has been made all-ticket.
