00:00:30.460 Hey, it's Jeremy Boren,
00:00:31.440 co-CEO and God King of The Daily Wire.
00:00:33.700 The Biden vaccine mandate is as good as dead.
00:00:36.420 We said do not comply and you did not comply.
00:00:39.060 In fact, over a million of you
00:00:40.320 signed our petition saying as much.
00:00:42.300 And today, together, we kick the government's ass.
00:00:45.520 Today, the Supreme Court decided
00:00:46.920 by a huge majority of 6-3
00:00:48.740 to stay the Biden administration's
00:00:51.000 unconstitutional private employer vaccine mandate.
00:00:54.240 It's just a tremendous day for the American people
00:00:56.420 and a tremendous day for the founding idea
00:00:58.520 that this is a limited government
00:01:00.140 of enumerated powers
00:01:01.540 which exist to protect, not erode,
00:01:03.940 the God-given freedoms of the people.
00:01:06.080 More, the court's stay will prevail
00:01:07.800 even if the Sixth Circuit
00:01:09.080 somehow rules in favor of the Biden administration
00:01:11.480 at some future date.
00:01:13.200 This spells all but certain doom
00:01:15.000 for OSHA's unimaginable overreach
00:01:16.960 into the private health decisions
00:01:18.180 of some 85 million Americans
00:01:20.160 whose only crime is having a job at a company
00:01:22.780 with more than 100 employees.
00:01:24.780 According to the order,
00:01:25.900 the Supreme Court said,
00:01:27.060 quote,
00:01:27.720 Although COVID-19 is a risk
00:01:29.420 that occurs in many workplaces,
00:01:31.380 it's not an occupational hazard in most.
00:01:34.160 COVID-19 can and does spread at home,
00:01:36.680 in schools, during sporting events,
00:01:38.220 and everywhere else that people gather.
00:01:40.380 That kind of universal risk
00:01:41.920 is no different from the day-to-day dangers
00:01:44.000 that all face,
00:01:45.220 from crime, air pollution,
00:01:46.680 or any number of communicable diseases.
00:01:49.160 Permitting OSHA to regulate
00:01:50.480 the hazards of daily life
00:01:52.020 simply because most Americans have jobs
00:01:54.080 and face those same risks
00:01:55.120 while on the clock
00:01:55.980 would significantly expand
00:01:57.600 OSHA's regulatory authority
00:01:58.940 without clear congressional authorization.
00:02:01.740 The whole thing is just that good.
00:02:03.980 You really have to read every word.
00:02:05.600 The order further states,
00:02:06.980 quote,
00:02:07.600 Although Congress has indisputably
00:02:09.180 given OSHA the power
00:02:10.100 to regulate occupational dangers,
00:02:12.120 it has not given that agency
00:02:13.380 the power to regulate
00:02:14.240 public health more broadly,
00:02:16.000 requiring the vaccination
00:02:17.000 of 84 million Americans
00:02:18.700 selected simply because
00:02:19.940 they work for employers
00:02:20.980 with more than 100 employees,
00:02:22.700 certainly falls in the latter category.
00:02:25.020 So what does all this mean?
00:02:26.500 It means we won.
00:02:27.900 It means we're still free.
00:02:29.340 It means the complainants,
00:02:30.720 beginning with the Daily Wire,
00:02:32.140 who brought the first
00:02:32.820 in the nation lawsuit
00:02:33.640 against the mandate,
00:02:34.760 and the nearly 60 other complainants,
00:02:37.120 including the Federation
00:02:37.960 of Independent Business
00:02:38.860 and a coalition of states
00:02:40.200 who are invited to give
00:02:41.020 oral arguments before the court,
00:02:42.860 have prevailed
00:02:43.660 in our application
00:02:44.740 for injunctive relief.
00:02:46.280 And it means that for today,
00:02:47.860 and very likely forever,
00:02:49.180 Joe Biden's attempt
00:02:50.460 to turn private employers
00:02:51.680 into the enforcement arm
00:02:53.000 of his federal vaccination scheme
00:02:54.560 will not be implemented.
00:02:57.200 The scope of just how badly
00:02:58.720 we beat the bastards
00:02:59.720 is hard to overemphasize.
00:03:01.780 Writing in concurrence
00:03:02.720 with the order,
00:03:03.660 Justices Gorsuch,
00:03:04.680 Thomas, and Alito
00:03:05.500 point out that
00:03:06.520 had OSHA's rule
00:03:07.500 been allowed to stand,
00:03:08.860 quote,
00:03:09.420 the law would afford OSHA
00:03:10.840 almost unlimited discretion.
00:03:13.640 Says the concurring opinion,
00:03:15.060 quote,
00:03:15.280 The question before us
00:03:16.680 is not how to respond
00:03:18.080 to the pandemic,
00:03:19.200 but who holds the power
00:03:20.240 to do so.
00:03:21.320 The answer is clear.
00:03:22.820 Under the law
00:03:23.360 as it stands today,
00:03:24.560 that power rests
00:03:25.340 with the states
00:03:25.980 and Congress,
00:03:27.300 not OSHA.
00:03:28.780 If the court were to grant
00:03:29.780 such emergency powers,
00:03:31.060 say the Justices,
00:03:32.120 declaration of emergencies
00:03:33.260 would never end,
00:03:34.280 and the liberties
00:03:34.920 our Constitution's
00:03:35.920 separation of powers
00:03:36.820 seek to preserve
00:03:37.600 would amount to little.
00:03:39.480 Total victory.
00:03:41.180 Not just for the millions
00:03:42.320 of Americans
00:03:42.900 who've exercised
00:03:43.720 their right
00:03:44.100 not to be vaccinated,
00:03:45.520 but the millions more
00:03:46.480 who oppose the tyranny
00:03:47.720 of this mandate
00:03:48.440 regardless of their
00:03:49.380 vaccine status.
00:03:51.060 And utter defeat
00:03:52.400 for the Biden government,
00:03:53.960 which sought to enforce
00:03:55.060 its will on the American people,
00:03:56.820 literally into the veins
00:03:58.140 of the American people,
00:03:59.440 at threat of financial ruin
00:04:01.080 just because they're convinced
00:04:02.320 that they know better
00:04:03.060 than you do.
00:04:04.260 Drink their tears,
00:04:05.340 my friends,
00:04:06.180 and enjoy your freedom.
