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.

Leeds United have collected 14 yellow cards in their last five Premiership matches.

West Ham's Marc Vivien Foe has been booked in each of his last four Premiership appearances.

David Elleray, who issued fewer cards than any Premiership referee last season, began this one with four in 74 minutes at Upton Park after replacing an injured Paul Durkin.

Mansfield's David Kerr received the first red card of the new campaign after 11 minutes at Brighton.
