From KQED, Public Radio in San Francisco, this is Forum. I'm Marisa Lagos and for Mina Kim.

Coming up, we'll chat with John Paul Brammer, the self-described Chicano Carrie Bradshaw, who joins us to talk about his new memoir,

Ola Pappy, how to come out in a Walmart parking lot and other life lessons. His essays explore coming of age, coming out, and finding love.

But first, Ben Protis of the New York Times joins us to explain the criminal charges New York prosecutors brought yesterday against the Trump organization.

That's next on Forum right after this news.

Music right after this news.

Welcome back to Forum. I'm Risa Lagos and from Mina Kim. New York prosecutors charged the Trump Organization and its chief financial officer, Alan Weisselberg, yesterday, with running a 15-year tax fraud scheme. The charges arose from an ongoing multi-year investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney and the New York Attorney General into off-the-book's payments made to Weisselberg and other Trump organization employees.

We're going to talk about the latest developments and what's next with Ben Protests.

He's investigative reporter at the New York Times.

Ben, thanks for joining us.

Thanks for having me.

So can we start broad here?
