Which thermal underwear is best? Whether you hunt, exercise outdoors, enjoy winter sports or just have to do yard work in the winter, cold weather can make it difficult to stay outside for long periods.

If you’re looking for a high-quality set of thermal underwear with a comfortable slim fit, Fruit of the Loom Men’s Recycled Waffle Thermal Underwear Set is the perfect option. What to know before you buy a thermal underwear Material Thermal underwear is available in several different materials, which affect how insulating, moisture-wicking and easy to care for it is. The most common thermal underwear materials are: Cotton: Thermal underwear made with cotton is usually the most affordable and features a natural material that works well for sensitive skin. Cotton absorbs moisture easily, though, so it isn’t a good option for activities that make you sweat. Instead, cotton thermal underwear works best for activities where you won’t be moving much, such as taking in a sporting event or lounging around

By JOSH BOAK, Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump is returning to the White House ready to immediately overhaul the government using the fastest tool he has — the executive order. An incoming president signing a flurry of executive orders is standard practice. Executive orders allow a president to wield power without action from Congress. But there are also limits to what orders can achieve. A primer on how the presidential power works and its often fleeting impact: What are executive orders? Basically, they are signed statements about how the president wants the federal government to be managed. They can be instructions to federal agencies or requests for reports.

By JON GAMBRELL, Associated Press DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Yemen’s Houthi rebels have signaled they now will limit their attacks in the Red Sea corridor to only Israeli-affiliated ships, just as a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip entered its second day Monday. The Houthis’ announcement, made in an email sent to shippers and others on Sunday, likely won’t be enough to encourage global firms to reenter the route that’s crucial for cargo and energy shipments moving between Asia and Europe. Their attacks have halved traffic through the region, cutting deeply into revenues for Egypt, which runs the Suez Canal linking the Red Sea to the Mediterranean. “The ceasefire is considered fragile,” said Jakob P. Larsen, the head of maritime security for BIMCO, the largest international association representing shipowners. “It is assessed that even minor deviations from the ceasefire agreements could lead to hostilities, which would subsequently prompt the Houthis to again direct threats against a broader range of international shipping.” The Houthis separately planned a military statement on Monday, likely about the decision. The Houthis made the announcement through their Humanitarian Operations Coordination

RAMALLAH, West Bank — After 15 months of collective grief and anxiety, three Israeli hostages left Hamas captivity and returned to Israel, and dozens of Palestinian prisoners walked free from Israeli jail, leaving both Israelis and Palestinians torn between celebration and trepidation as the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas took hold Sunday. The skies above Gaza and Israel were silent for the first time in over a year, and Palestinians began returning to what was left of the homes they fled across the war-ravaged enclave, started to check on relatives left behind and, in many cases, to bury their dead. After months of tight Israeli restrictions, more than 600 trucks carrying humanitarian aid rolled into the devastated territory. The ceasefire that went into effect Sunday morning stirred modest hopes for ending the Israel-Hamas war. But in Israel, the joy of seeing freed hostages Emily Damari, Romi Gonen, and Doron Steinbrecher reunited with their families was tempered by major questions over the fate of the nearly 100 others abducted in Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attack, still in captivity in Gaza. Damari, Gonen and Steinbrecher were the

By MARC LEVY, Associated Press HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The bitcoin-friendly administration of President-elect Donald Trump and an expanding lobbying effort in statehouses could push states to become more open to crypto and lead public pension funds and treasuries to buy into it. Proponents of the uniquely volatile commodity argue it is a valuable hedge against inflation, similar to gold. Many bitcoin enthusiasts and investors are quick to say government-backed currencies are prone to devaluation and increased government buy-ins will stabilize future price swings, giving them more legitimacy and boosting already rising prices.

By LINDSEY BAHR, Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Carrie Underwood might not be Beyoncé or Garth Brooks in the celebrity superstar ecosystem. But the singer’s participation in President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration is nevertheless a sign of the changing tides, where mainstream entertainers, from Nelly to The Village People are more publicly and more enthusiastically associating with the new administration. Eight years ago, Trump reportedly struggled to enlist stars to be part of the swearing-in and the various glitzy balls that follow. The concurrent protest marches around the nation had more famous entertainers than the swearing-in, which stood in stark contrast to someone like Barack Obama, whose second inaugural ceremony had performances from Beyoncé, James Taylor and Kelly Clarkson and a series of starry onlookers. There were always some celebrity Trump supporters, like Kid Rock, Hulk Hogan, Jon Voight, Rosanne Barr, Mike Tyson, Sylvester Stallone and Dennis Rodman, to name a few. But Trump’s victory this time around was decisive and while Hollywood may always skew largely liberal, the slate of names participating in his inauguration weekend events has improved.

By GISELA SALOMON AND SOPHIA TAREEN, Associated Press MIAMI (AP) — Parents around Nora Sanigo’s large, rectangular dining table had lunch before signing documents to make the Nicaraguan immigrant a legal guardian of their children, entrusting them to her if they are deported. She gave a list of what to carry with them: birth certificates, medical and school records, immigration documents, her phone number. “Talk to your children and tell them what can happen, let them have my phone number on hand, let them learn it, let them record it,” Sandigo said Sunday.

By ZEKE MILLER, CHRIS MEGERIAN and MICHELLE PRICE, Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump, who overcame impeachments, criminal indictments and a pair of assassination attempts to win another term in the White House, will be sworn in as the 47th president on Monday, taking charge as Republicans assume unified control of Washington and set out to reshape the country’s institutions. Trump is expected to act swiftly after the ceremony, with executive orders already prepared for his signature to jumpstart deportations, increase fossil fuel development and reduce civil service protections for government workers, promising that his term will bring about “a brand new day of American strength and prosperity, dignity and pride.” Frigid weather is rewriting the pageantry of the day. Trump’s swearing-in was moved indoors to the Capitol Rotunda — the first time that has happened in 40 years — and the inaugural parade was replaced by an event at a downtown arena. Throngs of Trump supporters who descended on the city to watch the inaugural ceremony on the West Front of the Capitol from the National Mall will be left to find somewhere

Monday, January 20, 2025 2:33PM TikTok users woke up Sunday morning to an in-app message that President-Elect Trump helped champion get the banned app back online. FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — “[TikTok] did change my life. It gave me some new friends who have taught me so much.” Fresno State student Marissa Cano explains how the social media app TikTok has helped her. “TikTok doesn’t have the same feel like everything else. I feel like it created different platforms for people to become interconnected, like very much community came from there,” Cano said. Cano is sharing the sentiment of many, who were upset when the app was suddenly unavailable. A message posted on the platform Saturday night, explained a U.S. law banning the app forced it to go offline. But on Sunday morning, TikTok was gradually restored for its 170 millions users. An updated message thanked President-elect Donald Trump for “providing the clarity and assurance to our service providers that they will face no penalties…” Phillip Gamez, also known as Fresno Phil, has acquired more than 13 thousand followers on TikTok.

By JILL COLVIN and BARBARA ORTUTAY, Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) — During his first term as president, Donald Trump led the effort to ban TikTok, the hugely popular video-sharing site he said posed a threat to U.S. national security. But on the eve of his return to the White House, the president-elect is being hailed as the app’s savior. After going dark for users this weekend, Trump said on his social media site that he would issue an executive order after he’s sworn in for a second term on Monday delaying a TikTok ban “so that we can make a deal to protect our national security.” He said the order would make clear that companies will not be held liable for violating a law that aimed to force TikTok’s sale by its China-based parent company. Hours later, the app returned, to the relief of its legions of dedicated users. “Thanks for your patience and support. As a result of President Trump’s efforts, TikTok is back in the U.S.!” read the announcement. Related Articles National Politics | Watch live: Donald Trump’s inauguration National Politics |

President-elect Donald Trump is marking his historic political comeback to the White House with a signature “Make America Great Again Victory Rally” in Washington on Sunday, bringing together more than 20,000 supporters to the nation’s capital ahead of Inauguration Day. The rally is being held at Capital One Arena, mirroring the Madison Square Garden rally he held in New York City last October, which served as his closing remarks to American voters a week before Election Day in November.

WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump used one last rally on the eve of his inauguration to again celebrate his election victory, declaring Sunday, “We won” to a crowd celebrating his return to the White House and projecting defiant optimism despite deep national political divisions. “Tomorrow, at noon, the curtain closes on four long years of American decline, and we begin a brand-new day of American strength and prosperity, dignity and pride,” Trump told supporters, adding, “We not only won a mandate, but we built a new American majority that will lead our country to success for generations to come.” LIVE UPDATES: Latest on inauguration of Pres.-elect Donald Trump Supporters filled nearly all of the 20,000-plus-seat Capital One Arena to hear a performance by Kid Rock, who performed “All Summer Long” despite a cold mix of rain and snow falling outside.

By SOPHIA TAREEN, Associated Press CHICAGO (AP) — The Rev. Homero Sanchez said he didn’t realize the depth of fear in the Chicago immigrant community he serves until someone asked him to handle the sale of their family’s home and other finances if they are picked up this week when President-elect Donald Trump takes office. Immigrants in large cities have been preparing for mass arrests since Trump won election in November, but reports that his initial push would be in the Chicago area has brought a new sense of urgency and fear. “They feel they have been targeted for who they are. They feel like they’re reviving this fear they had eight years ago,” said Sanchez of St. Rita of Cascia Parish on Chicago’s South Side. “They’re feeling like something is going to happen. This is not their city because of the threat.” Sanchez, whose congregation has consisted mostly of people of Mexican descent since the 1980s, devoted Sunday Mass “to solidarity with our immigrant brothers and sisters.” Priest Homero Sanchez reacts as he speaks during a service at St. Rita of Cascia Parish in
