    Re: Consider This

    For all national purposes embraced by the Federal constitution, the states and the citizens are one, united under the same sovereign authority, and governed by the same laws. In all other respects the states are necessarily foreign and independent of each other. Buckner v. Finley, 2 Pet. (U.S.) 386; Bracket v. Norton, 4 Conn 517, 10 Am. Dec. 179; Hempstead v. Reed, 6 Conn 480

    The courts of the United States will take cognizance of the laws which were previously enforced in countries acquired by the United States before such acquisition. The laws of such countries are not to be considered foreign laws, but those of an antecedent government. United States v. Permit, 98 U.S. 428

    The laws of Mexico in force in California, before and at the time of the transfer of California to the United States, upon which the title of lands in California depends, must be judicially noticed and expounded by the courts in like manner as other public laws of the state of California. They are laws to be noticed, not facts to be proved. They are not regarded as foreign laws but laws that pass with the territory. Bouldin v. Phelps, 30 Fed. 547

    The courts must take notice of the laws of the mother-country as they existed before the revolution in the same manner as the courts of the several States are bound to take notice of any regulation of the United State, Davis v. Curry, 2 Bibb (Ky) 238

    The laws of a foreign country cannot be noticed by the courts unless they be proved like other facts, but when when countries have once belonged to the same government and the same law prevailed in both, the separation does not tender the law in existence at the time they divided foreign to each other. The courts will therefore take notice of such law. 1 La. 248, 20 Am. Dec. 279

    In the case of Chouteau v. Pierre, 9 Mo. 9, it was held that the courts will take judicial notice of the laws which prevailed in Missouri under the precedent governments of France and Spain.

    In the case of Stokes v. Macken, 62 Barb. (Ny) 145, the court held that if the court has no means of information as to what the law of another country is, it will act upon its own laws; but, if such country once constituted part of the same kingdom or government with that where the court sits, and they were governed by the same laws, the courts will take judicial notice of the laws which prevailed in both before their separation, as a matter of public history, and presume them unchanged, till the contrary be shown.

    Re: Consider This

    Now for your consideration

    The government that existed prior to the Democrats creating their own unique ballot rules was precedent to the government-by-fiat- chaos created after?

    Re: Consider This

    And then consider this

    The edicts and comments of dictator-by-fiat Fauci, the CDC and the illusions based upon fear of millions of people concerning healthcare fit in the classification of hysteria rather than law either foreign or domestic?
