HARRISBURG — The new session of the Pennsylvania Senate got off to a chaotic start Tuesday, with Republicans refusing to seat a Democratic senator whose election victory has been certified by state officials. Amid high emotions and partisan fingerpointing, Republicans also took the rare step of removing the Democratic lieutenant governor, John Fetterman, from presiding over the session. They apparently did so because they did not believe Fetterman was following the rules and recognizing their legislative motions.

This year's first auction of blowfish, or fugu, has been held in the western city of Shimonoseki in Yamaguchi Prefecture. Shimonoseki is home to the largest market in Japan for the winter delicacy.

We Laugh, They RuleNo columnist’s cleverness could do justice to the absurdity of Rep. Emanuel Cleaver’s opening prayer for the 117th Congress on Sunday. Cleaver, a Methodist pastor, closed his prayer for national peace “in the name of the monotheistic God, Brahma, and ‘God’ known by many names by many different faiths. Amen and awoman.” No doubt the assembled members afterward went to work on awomendments to important bills. The wisecracks write themselves. But I wonder which of two modes of laughter we are dealing with here: Do we laugh with confidence that the American people will, in time, overcome...

Wednesday’s fight over a long-shot effort to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election is dividing Republicans, including those from the same state, as opposition grows to the plan.
