Whether you&#8217;re researching the finances of Elon Musk&#8217;s Pro-Trump PAC, or producing the latest documentary, The Words, we shed light on American women fighting for reproductive rights, but we know how important it is to analyze facts from a message.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-1uza6dc-0 cKWiEj\">At such a crucial moment in American history, we need a reporter on the ground. Your donation allows us to send journalists to continue talking to both sides of the story.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-1uza6dc-0 cKWiEj\">Independents are trusted by Americans throughout the political spectrum.
