“Oh, really? Distortion?...The Law of Nations cited on the document are on pages 1, 3, 4, 8, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 52, 53, 55, 57, 58, 61 and 62.”
The issue is not whether international law has any validity in the U.S. It is whether Enghlish common law is irrelevant (it isn’t) and what bearing international law has on domestic policy (none).
English common law is pretty irrelevant. We do share common types of laws with other nations, but they are not the same and as English laws are disparate from American common law, which has developed separately after we broke away from Great Britian and formed our own country.
I can't say it better than this guy did below.
Here is an excerpt from Jedi Pauly's in his essay:

"The Declaration of Independence and the War of 1776 secured the sovereign political authority of the former citizen subjects of the King of England who were not born having their natural sovereign political authority or natural sovereign political rights to be recognized by the King.
With the successful conclusion of the War of 1776, the colonies, and later the U.S., no longer recognized the automatic inherited political allegiances from soil jurisdictions which had been the case in the colonies under the monarchy form of government of England. U.S. law does not recognize there to be political allegiances owed due to being born on soil jurisdictions.
The U.S. Constitution establishes a Sovereign Republic of Sovereign citizens.
A Sovereign authority is the author and source of the law.
A Sovereign citizen takes his jurisdiction with him wherever he goes.
Natural Rights are Inherited from other human beings and are not obtained from soil jurisdictions which are just artificially created legal fictions.
Article II is meant to protect the sovereignty of the citizens and nation by ensuring political allegiance to a Sovereign Republic form of government by preventing a monarchy, because the original intent was that Article II should bar Titles of Nobility from attaining the office of President, which would create a Monarchy and not a Sovereign Republic."
