I've never heard a for profit business referred to as an NGO. Part of the "Stakeholders" rubric, but NGO almost always refers to Non-Profits.
Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) are typically mission-driven advocacy or service organizations in the nonprofit sector. There are large and small NGOs operating around the world and organized for just about every imaginable purpose. The term – coming from United Nations (UN) jargon to delineate between government bodies and private organizations – is relatively modern.
I've never heard "NGO" used to refer to IBM or 3M. To the Chamber of Commerce or Red Cross, yes.
Yeah. Because it's defined by those who don't know English.
A non-governmental organization (NGO) is a group that functions independently of any government with the objective of improving social conditions. NGOs are typically non-profit institutions. They are sometimes called civil society organizations and are established on community, national, and international levels to serve a social or political goal such as a humanitarian cause or the protection of the environment.
Firstly, progressive NGOs are on the run. “Some statistics indicate that fully one-third of NGOS incorporated in the U.S. lost funding in the first half of 2025,” one researcher wrote. “NGOs are nervous — and some are pulling back from some of the causes that they know this administration does not support,” she continued, almost in awe.
We conservatives didn’t even know about the NGO problem a year ago. The rest of the world knew about the threat; but we were the last one to find out. Only Democrats realized how much influence these shady nongovernmental organizations exercised on our democratic republic, and they never talked about it. But they’re talking about it now, Jack.
I think it's really true that when Biden's 20 million or so criminal aliens finally get sent back, there will be lots of work for all the government workers Trump is busy firing.
