6 p.m.
Former Secretary of State John Kerry has responded to President Donald Trump's criticism of his meeting with the Iranian foreign minister by telling the commander in chief he should instead focus on the special counsel's investigation.
Late Thursday, Trump accused Kerry of holding "illegal meetings" with the Iranian government. Kerry was an architect of the Iran nuclear deal that Trump withdrew from in May, and Kerry met several times with Iran's foreign minister since leaving office.
