Sen. Graham Threatens to Block Nominees over Benghazi
Published at
US Senate(WASHINGTON) — Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., threatened to block “every appointment” in the Senate until Congress has the ability to talk to the survivors of last year’s attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi.
“Where are the #Benghazi survivors? I’m going to block every appointment in the US Senate until they are made available to Congress,” Graham tweeted Monday morning.
Graham made a similar threat earlier this year when he tried to block the nominations of Chuck Hagel and John Brennan until Congress received more answers about the president’s actions the night of the attacks.
In an interview with FOX News Monday morning, Graham also called on Congress to start a joint committee to investigate the attacks in Benghazi.
