Is this a formal movement? What are the specific grounds people are resting their suits on?
It's not a formal movement. It's just a large number of people who have figured out, either by "waking up" and/or general concern about the state of our country, that there is more that can be done than those people previously realized (like me) and they have decided to learn court process and start taking matters into their own hands because 99% of lawyers will not be able to really help you. One of the reasons prohibition ended was because of the backlogs of lawsuits filed by citizens, they realized they had to give up. This is what we all need to be doing.
There are many grounds for the suits: state/federal constitutions, statutory laws, and case law. It does require a lot of reading and there is semantic deceit you must learn to read through, but it's there. A well-known case in some of these groups is that of Steve Emerson out of Florida who sued for property taxes, won ~$38 million and (I think) free utilities for life. His case was sealed, but he has been spreading the word for years about the laws and much of his free information has made its rounds.
Learning this stuff gives you the tools to combat much more than that. It's pretty eye-opening. If you're interested, look up the "Alphonse Faggiolo" Telegram group, but there are also other law groups that branch off from there teaching much of the same stuff. Alphonse is very good at this stuff and I bet he will likely win his case, but he's not the only one.
And none of this is sovereign citizen garbage. This is real law.

That's very interesting. I'm always surprised when I find out about these kinds of things, because I generally feel like I've got a good handle on what the "liberty movement" is up to.
Can you post any of the information you've come up with in ~libertarian? I bet people would be pretty interested.

There have been many times I've tried to convince people to start learning stuff and take matters into their own hands, but I am met with apathy. Unfortunately also from some of the biggest believers in liberty: bitcoiners.
Regardless, if I get some time today, I'll make a post about it.

Please do.
