Biden's Executive Order 14071, forbids Russians from working with or using GPL'd software made in the USA. And that includes the Linux Kernel.

This is not because of an executive order from Biden. This is because of the murderous war perpetrated by the criminal Putin.

If the whole Linux project died out, it wouldn't be on the top 10,000 important things that have been destroyed by Russia.
