South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham threatened to block a vote on President Obama's nominees unless the White House came forward with information concerning the fatal Benghazi attacks of 2012.
Graham has been vocal and public about his disdain for the Obama administration's handling of the assault on the United States consulate in Libya that left four killed and 10 injured.
Now, the South Carolina legislator has announced he'll do whatever he can to block "every appointment" from receiving a vote in the U.S. Senate. According to USA Today, a vote is scheduled that will determine whether Richard Griffin - who has been the Democrat favorite - will become general counsel of the National Labor Relations Board.
"Where are the Benghazi surviovrs?" Graham posted on Twitter. "I'm going to block every appointment in the U.S. Senate until they are made available to Congress."
The day before Graham made his statement, CBS' 60 minutes aired a piece on Benghazi in which a former British soldier gave his eyewitness account.
This isn't the first time Graham, a member of the Armed Services Committee, has called for a delay in President Obama's nomination - in January, the Senator urged the postponement of the POTUS' assassination czar and counterterrorism adviser John Brennan to become the head of the CIA until his administration gave some answers on Benghazi.
According to a News Max report from Jan. 8, Graham released a statement saying that, "the stonewalling on Benghazi by the Obama administration must come to an end."
A handful of judges are still waiting for Senate to give a stamp of approval on their nominations. Some deputies at the Defense, Interior and Energy Departments, along with some Federal Communications Commission members, will soon receive their confirmation hearings.
USA Today reported that senators can put "holds" on a presidential nominee in order to gain knowledge on other issues. According to a Congressional Research Service report, members of Senate confirm nearly 99 percent of presidential nominees.
