Nothing is more terrible than watching an entire nation mindlessly stumbling toward its constitutional death. Are the people of the United States in 2024 on the path to repeating the mistake Germans made when they handed Hitler the reins of power in 1933? This book directs that existential question to every American concerned about the survival of our constitutional democracy, and calls all concerned Americans to ACTION: In the words of the ancient biblical Call to Action, appropriate to our apocalyptic moment, this book summons the U.S. House of Justice and all its people to "Come" and "Hear" the words of a prophetic warning and guide for political action in 2024, and to ask: "Are we all, by our lack of imagination and action, effectively colluding with the Trump Show to destroy our democratic identities and our Constitution? And are we thereby abjectly submitting ourselves to political slavery even before the November elections occur?" Will history, in the end, say of Americans, as it looks back on the apocalyptic year of 2024, "Nothing was more terrible than watching the procession of Americans marching like zombies to their constitutional death"? A sycophantic political party has supported as their candidate for President a criminally corrupt man who has made vividly clear his full intent to overthrow the protective structures of the U.S. Constitution. His campaign is directly seeking from the U.S. House of Justice a permission structure for nothing less than the creation of a totalitarian dictatorship. This intent was clearly announced in his 1/18/24 "Truth Social" appeal (in ALL CAPS) to the Supreme Court for absolute immunity from prosecution, in spite of the fact that all 44 presidents before him were able to fulfill their function without such immunity. Trump wants the absolute power of a dictator to "cross the line," with no accountability to the structures of U.S. constitutional law or justice. And through the guise of the Trump Show's 2024 presidential campaign, he and his political enablers are now seeking from our U.S. House of Justice the permission structure and power to overthrow our Constitution and install a totalitarian dictatorship in 2025. Will we hand Trump what he wants, as the Germans handed Hitler the reins of their federal government in January 1933? Or will we act decisively in 2024 to shut down the Trump Show and condemn it to the pit of historical horrors where it belongs? A Warning from 100 Years Ago On February 26 1924, the High Treason trial of Adolf Hitler and his fellow insurrectionists began within four months of the November 1923 attempt to overthrow the German democratic constitution. As "we the people" of the U.S. House of Justice continue to wait - more than 3 years after the failed insurrection of 1/6/21 - to see justice done through the criminal trials of D.J. Trump, we should pause to consider, as both omen and historical warning, the haunting coincidence of the fact that the first criminal trial of Trump will begin in the year of the 100th anniversary of the farcically botched criminal trial of Adolf Hitler. What will we DO in the months ahead to ensure that the U.S. House of Justice does not allow Trump to control the political outcomes of the 2024 trials just as Hitler was allowed to control the political outcome of his 1924 trial? How can we ensure the end of the Trump Show's reign of terror in 2024? It's time to think and act creatively to end the Trump Show's political power in 2024 before it ends us! E. Jean Carroll opened the way by saying of Trump: "He's nothing" but a phantom, and "we don't need to be afraid of him." And "FEARLESS are they who not only read but hear and act on these words, for the time is at hand." (Rev. 1:3)

"An aphorism never coincides with the truth: it is either a half-truth or one-and-a-half truths," wrote Kraus. The aphorism was "a sub-genre [Kraus] considered the height of linguistic integrity. . . . With the help of notes and introductions by Zohn, the subtlety and archness of Kraus' linguistic gifts shine through."--Peter Filkins, Bloomsbury Review "Kraus is a superb aphorist."--D. J. Enright, New York Review of Books

One hundred years after Austrian satirist Karl Kraus began writing his dramatic masterpiece, The Last Days of Mankind remains as powerfully relevant as the day it was first published. Kraus's play enacts the tragic trajectory of the First World War, when mankind raced toward self-destruction by methods of modern warfare while extolling the glory and ignoring the horror of an allegedly "e;defensive"e; war. This volume is the first to present a complete English translation of Kraus's towering work, filling a major gap in the availability of Viennese literature from the era of the War to End All Wars. Bertolt Brecht hailed The Last Days as the masterpiece of Viennese modernism. In the apocalyptic drama Kraus constructs a textual collage, blending actual quotations from the Austrian army's call to arms, people's responses, political speeches, newspaper editorials, and a range of other sources. Seasoning the drama with comic invention and satirical verse, Kraus reveals how bungled diplomacy, greedy profiteers, Big Business complicity, gullible newsreaders, and, above all, the sloganizing of the press brought down the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In the dramatization of sensationalized news reports, inurement to atrocities, and openness to war as remedy, today's readers will hear the echo of the fateful voices Kraus recorded as his homeland descended into self-destruction.

Nos encontramos en la Europa de principios del siglo XX y no se avecinan tiempos de paz, precisamente. Karl Kraus, como muchos otros intelectuales, prevé los conflictos bélicos que, hoy en día, se enseñan en cualquier instituto, pero su análisis va un paso más allá. Las masacres no suceden un día, sin más; la intolerancia no surge así, de la nada; la estupidez no es solo de los grandes malvados de la historia.Quizá, todos tengamos una pizca de responsabilidad en las atrocidades que, hasta día de hoy, ha cometido y sigue cometiendo el ser humano. La inacción colectiva se puede convertir en el arma más potente de un sistema opresor. Y es justamente por eso, que Kraus habla de Apocalipsis: cuando el pueblo suscribe los juicios de los discursos dominantes y la opinión critica queda anestesiada, entonces ya no queda esperanza. Pocos textos siguen tan vigentes en la sociedad de los likes y los retweets. Karl Kraus (1874-1936), a través de su periódico Die Fackel (La Antorcha), dedicó hasta su último suspiro a combatir este Apocalipsis con sátira e ironía. Fue leído y citado por Walter Benjamin i Ludwig Wittgenstein y su obra sigue más viva que nunca.
