He must mean the Senate, but I was asking about Representatives. But the Senate doesn’t have anything to do with allowing/not allowing Reps to be seated, that I’ve ever heard of (not that I know everything...).
Screw gargle, go to a better search engine.
LJ, did anyone ever answer your question about the reps being seated in the house?
Well, my question was about what Cletus posted (courtesy Cletus ping):
The members who were not elected/reelected convene the new Congress (agree to seat incumbent members). They then agree to seat the new members.
Members who are re-elected are considered anew as their “term” closed at the Ned of the old Congress.
Ostensibly, the members “carried over” could deny seating to others at the convening but that would cause an election crisis. As would denying in-coming members.
I just don’t understand because all House of Rep members are elected or re-elected every two years, so what members are “carried over” who could deny seating? I understand that Senators’ elections are staggered, so there are 2/3 that are continuing their terms, but can they deny seating to Representatives?
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute....
You’re still in beautiful country and can get to the coast faster than I can from West Texas. :-)
Yes. I understand your question because I have that same question.

Lol - you are correct... there are reasons why I am not as satisfied here as years ago but everything changes. And moving is so much trouble.

A Holiday Mystery: Why Did John Roberts Intervene in the Mueller Probe?
We’re about to find out why the chief justice of the Supreme Court decided to get involved in the special counsel’s investigation.
I saw some discussion on this the other day and it also seemed confused. They were referring on the Senate's likely refusal to seat Roy Moore, but he didn't get elected. (The Senate)
As far as the House is concerned, I don't know if the same situation exists, and it may be found in the Constitution. I gathered they were saying that the current outgoing House could refuse to seat incoming Congress-elects if there was evidence of massive voter fraud.
I hope it's true, I hope they do, and I have no doubt there was.
Our own Maine CD2 GOP rep had his seat stolen.

Graham emerged from the White House after a two-hour lunch with Trump and said the president "told me some things I didn't know that make me feel a lot better about where we're headed in Syria."
Graham could save a lot of time if travel time to the White House and back if he just followed Q.
But I suspect he likes having lunch with real men.

Well, if the ten days of darkness refers to Q on hiatus, he should post again on Tuesday?
