Does the new leadership take over at noon--just like when we transition the presidency?

I should know that. I just don't remember the changing of the House leadership ever being this important.
If the transition is at high noon, it'll be interesting to see if the R's try to do something that morning to cause chaos for the new House.

The old congress will have adjourned, and the departing Republicans will no longer be there provide a majority.
