Original Note:
This is misleading and offers no evidence for the claim that 70% of funds often go to "slush funds" and DEI. Indirect costs (aka facilities and administrative costs) are used to fund infrastructure that make multiple projects possible. Strict rules apply to their use. https://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/nihgps/html5/section_7/7.3_direct_costs_and_facilities_and_administrative_costs.htm
