Political rhetoric. From my memory and quick search, the Huawei ban also had "no basis in fact." It was conducted with very little to no facts given publicly (unless I missed a major media outlet explanation) yet led to $2 billion in taxpayer cost [0].
Of course this doesn't mean Huawei doesn't have the capability or susceptibility to compromise a nation's security... but my point is, the same holds true for Micron.
