In 2023 Fitzgerald produced the film "The Fall of Deceit" starring General Flynn, Laura Loomer, Jody Hice, Admiral Kubic and many more high-profile America First figures. The concept of the film was to fight back against government overreach and FBI corruption. The topic was personal for Fitzgerald who faced an FBI raid of his home business in 1999 were he states he was coerced into a confession after 58 months of threats. Fitzgerald credited the wrongful conviction as why he entered America First politics. While the conviction was common knowledge, on multiple websites of his, and old press releases, the documentary film encouraged Fitzgerald to discuss it more often and several press releases were issued about the FBI case and its relevance the film. In what is probably a unique part of history, in June 2023, congressional investigators reviewed Stan Fitzgerald's conviction, and involvement in high profile politics, where they cleared Stan as safe, with good intentions, to be working with sitting members as a grass roots activist.   https://stan-fitzgerald.com/stan-fitzgeralds-work-with-vfaf-and-moving-on/

In 2024 Fitzgerald produced and directed the Film "Border Invasion an American Crisis" starring Victor Avila with contributions from Tom Homan, General Flynn, Jody Hice and numerous high profile America First figures. The film can be streamed at https://stan-fitzgerald.vhx.tv

On March 24, 2024 Fitzgerald stepped down as VFAF president stating his senior mother, and wife, were victims of Cyber Stalking, harassing calls, Doxing literally encouraging attacks from liberals and communists, Threats of physical violence and told they were being watched by CCP spies embedded in the Trump campaign with photos to prove such. Fitzgerald stated while he could handle threats, intimidation, litigating against infiltrators, and fake news with out of context headlines intended to end his effectiveness, his family had suffered enough simply because of his political views and efforts to help. Former President Fitzgerald's statement titled "Vindicated" can be read on the website at: https://veteransfortrump.us/stan-fitzgerald-steps-down-as-veterans-for-america-first-president/

Fitzgerald issued his final political statement debunking a fake news hit retiring from being a grassroots activist. Fitzgerald will go forward in conservative film making, promoting his film Border Invasion throughout 2024 and work on a new release in 2025.

"I think the highlights of my grassroots efforts were the shoutout from 45 and when he shared our VFAF endorsement on his Truth Social feed. I think my family can return to normal by staying off the frontlines of this battle and making an occasional documentary film project," said Stan Fitzgerald 3-31-24
