Senate GOP block vote on Brennan CIA nomination
Senator Rand Paul led a roughly five hour filibuster against John Brennan's CIA nomination, demanding a pledge against U.S. drone strikes on American soil. Democrats blocked his bid to attach a vote to a drone oversight resolution, while Brennan's committee approval and White House assurances influenced other senators toward confirmation.
