CIA nominee John Brennan continues to face hurdles toward a confirmation vote before the full Senate. Republican Senator Rand Paul has announced he will put a hold on Brennan’s nomination until Brennan and the White House can answer whether the government’s assassination program can target Americans on U.S. soil. Paul discussed his demand on Fox News.

Sen. Rand Paul: “We’re talking about someone eating at a cafe in Boston or in New York, and a Hellfire missile comes raining in on them. There should be an easy answer from the administration on this. They should say, 'Absolutely no, we will not kill Americans in America without an accusation, a trial and a jury.'”
