The cameras stayed on and running until Speaker Pelosi and Chairman Schiff were done and had left. After that, it sounded like a couple reporters trying to send reports to their offices.

The poster blaze supplied this link (which is no longer relevant)

Someone at CSPAN decided we didn’t need to hear from Adam Schiff. I thought the Democrats controlled the cameras.

I was annoyed when MSNBC cut away to, of all annoying anchors, Kornacki. I'm very glad I got to watch the whole conference.

It was just a wrap up of what people knew.

If ya going to call a press conference, ya better have news that people dont know about.

This has happen twice now, I hope it doesnt get to be a "Boy that cried wolf" situation.
