"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 Electoral Commission has been asked to investigate cryptocurrency donations to Reform UK amid claims Nigel Farage may have abused his public position as an MP. The Lib Dems have requested an investigation after the commission's quarterly report last week revealed that Thai-based crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne had given Reform a 9m donation - the largest ever political donation by a single living person."
"Reform has said none of the donation from Mr Harborne - who sometimes goes under the Thai name Chakrit Sakunkrit - was in cryptocurrency. But it has declined to answer other questions on cryptocurrency donations that Mr Farage has publicly claimed that the party has received. In the letter to the commission, the Lib Dems raised concerns over a potential conflict of interest which could undermine public trust in the integrity of our political system."
Journalists are deployed across issues including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech to verify facts and provide balanced reporting. Investigations have examined the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and a documentary titled 'The A Word' profiles American women fighting for reproductive rights. Funding relies on reader donations rather than paywalls to keep reporting freely accessible and supported by those who can afford to pay. The Electoral Commission has been asked to probe cryptocurrency donations to Reform UK after a quarterly report revealed a 9m donation from Thai-based crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne. Questions remain over whether any of that donation involved cryptocurrency and whether conflicts of interest exist, after Reform declined to answer some queries and Nigel Farage announced plans for the party to accept crypto donations.
