In a rare move, Brennan’s confirmation hearing was temporarily called into recess following
multiple interruptions by protesters drawing attention to his leading role in the drone
war. Members of the group CODEPINK began standing up one by one to condemn the killings of U.S.
citizens and civilians abroad until Senate Intelligence Committee Chair Dianne Feinstein
brought the hearing to a halt. Eight CODEPINK protesters were arrested.

Dorothy, my 92-year-old father Owen, who emigrated from Ireland nearly 65 years ago."

All right, I’m going to — we’re going to halt the hearing. I’m going to ask that
the room be cleared and that the CODEPINK associates not be permitted to come back in.
Done this five times now, and five times are enough.
