A report for the Pentagon was released by Arlington, Virginia-based Govini, which in 2019 received a five-year, $400 million contract from the Pentagon to provide data, analysis and information on Department of Defense spending, supply chain and acquisitions.

The report also states that dependence on the Chinese supply chain is present on every major weapons platform, including US aircraft carriers.

It is separately noted that the current dependence on China cannot be resolved even in a decade. Because a “supply chain” at this scale is an entire economy, as it is a network of many firms that buy and sell from each other.

“I know that President Biden and his team have been true public servants and have put the country and the best interests of democracy first and foremost in their considerations," Sherrill said. "And because I know President Biden cares deeply about the future of our country, I am asking that he declare that he won’t run for reelection and will help lead us through a process toward a new nominee.”

Some supporters of Joe Biden have been accused of being "Blue MAGA" for their staunch defense of the president in the wake of the CNN debate.

While there is no official definition for the term, Blue MAGA has been used to describe those who are fierce advocates of the so-called "vote blue no matter who" initiative and are not willing to criticize Democrats in any way.

The term has reemerged on social media in the wake of 81-year-old Biden's languishing and stumbling debate performance against Donald Trump on June 27. This has led to many, including Democrat figures, calling on Biden to end his 2024 campaign in order to allow a new candidate to face-off against 78-year-old Trump in November.
