Description | After nearly 13 hours on the Senate floor, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) has ended his filibuster of the nomination of John Brennan as director of the Central Intelligence Agency.
"I will speak until I can no longer speak," Paul said at the beginning of the filibuster, which he used to address concerns over President Obama's policies on civil liberties, including the president's controversial drone program. |
