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.

Guro Reiten will remain at Chelsea until 2026 after the club triggered an option to extend the Norway winger’s contract.
The 30-year-old, who joined from LSK Kvinner in 2019, is the Women’s Super League’s fifth all-time leading scorer with 35 goals in 102 top-flight appearances.
Reiten, Chelsea’s leading scorer in the league this season with six goals, has made 177 appearances overall for the Blues and helped the team win five WSL titles, three FA Cups and two League Cups as well as reach the 2021 Champions League final.
She surpassed 50 goals across all competitions for the club when she netted for Sonia Bompastor’s side in their October Champions League victory over FC Twente.
Reiten was nominated for the Ballon d’Or in 2023 and was named in the Professional Footballers’ Association Team of the Year for the 2021-22 and 2022-23 seasons.
Last season, left-footed Reiten enjoyed a standout campaign as Chelsea secured a fifth straight WSL title, scoring four goals in an 8-0 victory over Bristol City.
She has represented Norway at two World Cups and two Euros across nearly 100 appearances, scoring 21 goals for her country.
