Top White House Leaders disagree than agree on how to use active-duty military
Italy will be one of the first major European countries to open its borders
Unemployment is expected to surpass 30 million Americans. 

The White House is not in agreeance, but at the end of the day, the President gets what he wants. Mark Esper announced he was pulling active duty military from D.C. then a few hours later he reversed that decision. It seems that those above him either made him or convinced Esper to reverse his decision. James Mattis considered by some as the best General to serve in last 30 years, when he speaks, others listen. It is clear that there is friction in the decision making regarding the protests and riots and how to handle it. But I want to focus on what Mattis said because its important. Bringing in active duty military is very very different from activating the National Guard and it sets a completely different precedent. Do soldiers really need to be activated? Are there that many riots that the police and National Guard can’t handle the fight? But more importantly how does the general public view this move. As a way to stable peace or an escalation of force that must be met with more protests and riots.
Finally, it is important to make the distinction the general protestors has issues with police brutality, not the military. And the mix of military especially if something bad happens could only make things worse.
