A quarter of US "science" funding is now “diversity, gender, race” based, class warfare research. [Sorry, sKamala, that's not science.)

Americans should expect sKamala to fund science grants to help women in kneeling oral skill career advancements. "It's science because sKamala says it is."

Another quarter goes to biological weaponry.
The last quarter goes into the pockets of the revolving door of lobbyists and dirty Congress Critters.
To be fair, two comments:
1. The source document is
https://www.commerce.senate.gov/servi...
This is a PDF from US Senate Committee on Commerce Science and Transportation
Jo Nova's summary of it is good. It is not as pompous as many gov reports- no list of authors except the name Ted Cruz.
2. The technique used appears to be word/ expression search. Comments on the JoNova site question the validity of that for science but it does give a fair representation of what people think.
Does this bias in funding really distort the work of real scientists?
Maybe, not as much as you may think as grant applicants, after a few months, get wise on how to fake it. They slip in a sentence and words they know are needed, no need to place carefully or integrate, the computer doing the search does not evaluate or care, just clocks up the count of correct words.
FFA implies a question that JoNova does not ask:
How much money, if any, should gov spend on (scientific) research?
The fedgov should never have been allowed to steal from People and give their earnings as bribes to other thieves.
the connected parasitical federal-tit-sucking of Orren Boyle.
Two opposites attracted in one person.
Like Trump, Musk has yet to prove himself to my standards
