CALLER: It's interesting to me, Mark, to me that the Biden administration has not formally executed the vaccine mandate under, you know, executive order. But yet, the schools and the corporations are acting without authority and firing and affecting the pensions of millions of Americans.

And why is this not the most urgent issue before the Supreme Court, Mark? It seems to me like it's like the Supreme Court should --

MARK LEVIN (HOST): Well now wait, the teachers in in New York tried to bring the case, did bring it up, and Sotomayor shot it down. She wouldn't issue a stay order -- I guess that's what it would be from the Supreme Court, maybe it's a temporary injunction, I don't know. But she wouldn't do it.

CALLER: Mark, under the Tenth Amendment the states have a right to reject any undue burdens by the federal government.

LEVIN: Yeah, but in this case -- in this case, the states part of it, you know, New York's part of it. Here, I would argue we're talking more about the Ninth Amendment and we're also talking about the limited powers of the federal government as you look throughout the the Constitution.

I would argue that people who have natural immunity and people who have maladies where the vaccine could actually harm them, and also individuals in a class of individuals age-wise where the vaccine was not intended and was never actually tested properly, they have the best case to take to any court because there is no science to back up what any state or the federal government is trying to impose on them. None.

CALLER: Right? And how do you -- how do you have millions of Americans losing their jobs, their pensions, and -- 

LEVIN: Well, I don't know if it's millions, but it's definitely thousands, if not tens of thousands.

CALLER: But then, the Supreme Court is not interested in that?

LEVIN: Well, look, this court is -- I don't know why people think the Supreme Court is the answer to everything. I'll tell you, we've got cases coming before the Supreme Court that involve the Second Amendment gun rights, the First Amendment, religious liberty and abortion, which isn't in the Constitution at all. And I'm very nervous about it, because here we sit on the edge of our chairs and hope the court will uphold the fundamental liberties that -- that's in the Constitution that we were founded on, and I'm not certain they will.

I'm very nervous about this. If they do, great, but this isn't the way it was supposed to be, that the court gets to decide all matters of culture and and faith and and medicine. But if you're going to bring a case, those are the cases. Those, those are the individuals, I would argue, the plaintiffs because -- again, there's -- the science just doesn't support what the government's trying to do to those people. It just doesn't.

Now, Ivan, don't hang up, and I want to send you a signed copy of American Marxism. It's always a pleasure to hear from you. He's in Miramar, Florida.
