This one from Politico today kinda cemented my view on that subject:

"Russian state media enters Oval Office during Zelenskyy meeting": https://www.politico.com/news/2025/02/28/tass-oval-office-tr...

  > According to the White House, the Russian reporter’s presence was unplanned.

  > “TASS was not on the approved list of media for today’s pool,” a White House official said. “As soon as it came to the attention of press office staff that he was in the Oval, he was escorted out by the Press Secretary."

  > The White House did not address how the unapproved reporter was able to gain access to the Oval Office.
Only what's supposed to be one of the most secure sites in all of America, with one of the most difficult rooms to access anywhere. "We're not really sure how Russian media got in."
