Well, for the 9th, there was:
"As Justice Scalia observed, "the [Ninth Amendment’s] refusal to ‘deny
or disparage’ other rights is far removed from affirming any one of
them, and even further removed from authorizing judges to identify what
they might be, and to enforce the judges’ list against laws duly enacted
by the people." Troxel v. Granville, 530 U.S. 57, 91 (2000) (dissenting
from recognition of due-process-derived parental right to direct the
upbringing of their children)."

For the 10th, there was:
"The Court's most recent consideration of the anti-commandeering
principle occurred in 2018 in Murphy v. NCAA."

There may have been more recent usages/mentions but those were the ones
I found quickly.
