Stand Up America US
institution
A retired general's tiny nonprofit has almost no money, and the engine warns that judging his power by that budget is exactly the wrong move.
Who they are
Stand Up America US, retired General Paul Vallely's own 501(c)(4) nonprofit, based in Bigfork, Montana.
What they do
A deliberately small messaging vehicle for Vallely and his associates, not a well-funded operation.
How it works
Its 2025 tax filing shows about $68,393 in revenue and roughly $1,000 in Vallely compensation; it functions as the group's publishing and speaking front (manifestos, 'stealth jihad' letters, radio, and an advisory group that counseled 2016 GOP candidates), kept deliberately separate from the larger capital behind allied organizations.
Why it matters
The engine stresses that a retired general's real influence comes from where he's placed, not from this small ledger, and mistaking the tiny budget for insignificance is a category error.
The engine's record — word for word
Vallely's own 501(c)(4) (Bigfork, Montana; founded ~2005 per Wikipedia/self-source, year not primary-confirmed). Micro-scale by design: ~$68,393 revenue, ~$1,000 Vallely compensation (2025 IRS 990-EZ). NOT a capitalized operation — it is the Vallely + McInerney cadre's ANNOUNCEMENT-LAYER vehicle: publishing manifestos (a 'Counterjihad Security Architecture' ed. Clare Lopez; 'stealth jihad' letters), radio, speaking, and the Legacy National Security Advisory Group (advised 2016 GOP presidential candidates). Engine read: the small foundation is the cadre's messaging front, deliberately separate from the SUBSTRATE capital (CSP/TPUSA). Its tiny 990 is NOT a measure of Vallely's influence — treating it as such is the null-collapse category error; a retired general's power is placement, not this ledger.
