During his time with Veterans for America First leadership Stan Fitzgerald produced and directed three films relative to Saving America. The first 2023 film earned him a producer's credit for "The Fall of Deceit" which was geared at exposing and pushing back on the deep state wrongful convictions from political persecutions. Fitzgerald took this to heart, having himself lived through it decades ago. The Fall of Deceit premiered in a Georgia movie theatre and was aired on Newsmax.

Fitzgerald almost retired from grassroots politics in April 2024. As president of the VFAF national veterans' organization he was forced to deal with a leftist infiltrator that was embedded in the organization prior to his appointment. The embedded leftist caused chaos, division, fake news, VFAF impersonation and litigation. Fitzgerald resigned as president of the group and issued a public statement. Urged to come back and remain active by several high-profile veterans and politicians, Stan Fitzgerald returned just 6 weeks after a fake news hit piece relative to his wrongful conviction making his own amazing political comeback.

Fitzgerald received personal public shout outs from President Donald Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Brian Jack and others. Fitzgerald conducted video interviews with Byron Donalds, Laura Loomer, Cory Lewandowski, Mike Lindell, Tim Sheehy, Rock Star Tommy Vext and many other high profiles. The VFAF organization has been praised by Kash Patel, Elise Stefanik, Jim Jordan, Doug Collins, Steve Scalise, Mike Collins , Kellyanne Conway , Nancy Mace, Kevin Sorbo, John Rich and many other high profiles. Lauren Boebert featured the VFAF organizational endorsement in her campaign televised advertisements and reshared VFAF tweets on four occasions during the 2024 election cycle. Fitzgerald was asked to speak at several Georgia GOP events leading up the Trump presidential election.

Going forward Fitzgerald will remain active in America First politics with a somewhat lower national profile to focus on VFAF educational projects and press relations, for the national organization. Fitzgerald will take on a more active state level role with the Georgia Veterans for America First state chapter as political director to focus on Georgia politics.

Stan Fitzgerald's take on the most important roles in America First Politics, according to President Trump, being Donors, Influence and the candidates:

"As a donor, I put my money where my mouth is and will continue to do so in the next cycle for Trump and select politicians. Influence is more than just social media followers. My influence stems from standing behind the VFAF organization. I always prioritized saving America and VFAF over self-promotion. I do not even work on getting followers to my personal X account. VFAF press releases often get picked up by the Associated Press, averaging eight million impressions. Influence also lies in brand marketing — our USA Today Veterans Day special edition ad reached 140 million impressions. While social media influencers play a vital role in alternative news, our organization consistently garners more views online with permanent SEO results. When President Trump shares our endorsement or members like Lauren Boebert use them in commercials to win tight races, that's a mic-drop moment for influence," said Stan Fitzgerald.
