Ethics experts are raising questions about a report by Agence France-Presse that China's government will give $500 million in loans for construction of an Indonesian resort with a Trump-branded golf course and hotel. Also, acclaimed memoirist Mary Karr has just published "Tropic of Squalor," a new collection of poetry. Included in the collection are poems about her family, her relationship with God and David Foster Wallace, with whom she had an abusive relationship. And literary giant Tom Wolfe, who chronicled everything from hippies to the space program before turning his eye to fiction, has died at the age of 88. We look back at his life and career. That and more, in hour two of Here & Now's May 15, 2018 full broadcast. You can read and hear more at hereandnow.org, follow us on Twitter and join the conversation on Facebook and Tumblr.
