What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday, March 9, 2026. It’s Monday, therefore it’s Major Content Curation Day. There will be a “Coffee With Zack” VLOG in English later tonight, hopefully. As you may have heard, the situation in the Middle East is tense, because of Trump’s miscalculation in trying to invade Iran. Thankfully Senator Bernie Sanders is going to campaign for a call at Congress to avoid full-scale Military Conflict. #NoWarWithIran. The price of gas is already $6/gallon in Sacramento, CA, and $8/gallon in Los Angeles. Truly, Trump acted really stupid. Unfortunately, he’s trying to do this war to avoid the discussion about #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles, and he wants to cancel the Midterms 2026 elections. The Democrats won’t let them. There are millions of Americans who are tired with his nonsense.

Until Next Time!

What’s up, everybody! It’s Saturday, March 7, 2026. A great day for sports! There will be more Playstation 5 livestreams from me this weekend. Sorry I was busy yesterday, #diplomacy, I reached out to the Chinese and the Japanese, because quite frankly, I am tired of American Diplomats who are unable to yell at the President Trump’s administration for their complete lack of understand the Real World, and how their actions have severe consequences. Everybody at the United Nations demand a Ceasefire in Iran and in the Middle East Region as fast as humanely possible. The price of Gas is almost $6/gal in Sacramento, CA, and I’m afraid it will be about $8/gal or more in Los Angeles, CA. We do not want riots, that’s why Kamala Harris should have been our President 47, and that’s why I’m dedicating Happy International Women’s Day to her. PS. Have fun at #DreamStateSF, sorry I don’t have any money to go. That’s why I need a job that gives me a salary. As you can see, working for free for 8 years without paychecks from a superior manager has its toll.

Until Next Time!
