    The president's favorite coronavirus adviser says he was unaware of the huge controversy around the network RT

    I recently did an interview with RT and was unaware they are a registered foreign agent. I regret doing the interview and apologize for allowing myself to be taken advantage of. I especially apologize to the national security community who is working hard to defend us.
