John Kerry confirmation hearing —
Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, will face a nomination hearing on Thursday to succeed Hillary Clinton as secretary of state. President Barack Obama tapped Kerry for the role in December after Susan Rice, U.S. ambassador to the U.N., withdrew her candidacy amid criticism over comments she made about the attack in Benghazi.
