This should come as no surprise. The administration has no tolerance for anyone with “values” or “scruples” that challenge their power. They fired Judge Advocate Generals (military lawyers) that refused to authorize strikes on civilian boats, for one recent example. If you say ‘no’ for any reason, they fire you.

No other administration has used the "supply chain risk" designation against an American company. This is unprecedented.

because it is a big fucking risk if the tool you rely on can refuse to function at a critical moment, and the vendor publicly brags about refusing to eliminate such refusals. ta-ta, see you in 3 years.

Have you paid attention during any of the Administrations? In this post-Snowden era we have no excuse for not knowing the "government of the people" has been doing this to companies for a long time. AT&T for example. This Administration just does it out in the open.
