These extremists don’t care about international law, or established laws. Apparently the only laws they respect anymore are the one they make themselves.
Their idea of proper “law” is a sheriff that is a Grand Kleagle and running things exactly the way the radical right wing wants Johnny Law to be running things - arresting the “wrong” people, doing everything possible to keep the wimminz in line, etc…
The UDHR is simply a declaration, i.e. “everyone SHOULD have these and we SHOULD work towards making sure everyone have these”, but it’s not legally enforceable - it’s not a treaty or anything like that.
…and even if it had any kind of teeth, the radical right wing would hate it even more. They despise everything international, especially if it implies that (their version of) the United States is not entirely perfect.

They do not respect those, either, those laws are for poors.

Conservatives want the US to be a confederation, at least when it suits them.
