trying to figure out whether they were obligated to turn the complaint over to congress. cnn has learned the first official move to with hold aid came the evening of july 25th call t same day president trump and the president of ukraine had the phone call that spawned the initial complaint. a transcript of mark sandy's closed door testimony was just released and he says he told his boss withholding aid might violate federal law that. was before his boss took over responsibility for the ukraine money. according to the testimony, two people left their job at the budget office at least partly because of the ukraine mess. the house judiciary committee has now announced a new impeachment hearing. there's one difference this time. president trump has been invited to attend. more from manu raju on capitol hill. >> good morning. they're opening up a new phase

of impeachment proceedings in the house when they'll have testimony from experts who will weigh in on the constitutionality of impeachment and whether the president's conduct reaches the threshold of high crimes and misdemeanors. this panel is expected to have a discussion about the facts that were found as part of the two-month investigation that the house intelligence committee and two other committees found in looking into the president's handling of the ukraine policy wlanld or not he abused his office, violated the office in withholding key military aid for ukraine as well as a key meeting of the ukrainian president had sought with president trump in exchange for investigations. all that will be discussed in the series of hearings the judiciary committee will have starting on wednesday. expect a report first to come out from the house intelligence committee detailing the findings. then next wednesday will be that hearing. before there will be both of articles of impeachment in the house judiciary committee. that could take place the second week of december and spill into the third week of december, but

that will probably be the week to watch in which the full house will have an opportunity to vote on articles of impeachment on the president. democrats are moving full speed ahead. at the moment, they're discussing the size and scope of the articles of impeachment, how many articles to include, whether it's abuse of power, abuse of bribery, obstruction of congress or even obstruction of congress. but this is significant because it signals a new phase of the impeachment probe is coming and coming soon. back to you. >> all right, manu. thank you so much for that. we have breaking news. at least three people injured after a powerful explosion at a chemical plant east of houston. witnesses say the blast shook homes and shattered windows more than 40 miles away. there's now a mandatory evacuation for everyone within a half mile of the plant. police told cnn affiliates everyone else should shelter in place. they're likely assessing what chemicals right now are being

new developments in the impeachment probe have president trump on shakier grounds. according to a report president trump knew about the whistle-blower complaint before he decided to release military aid to ukraine back in september. that would suggest that that factored into the decision to increase the aid. lawyers from the white house briefed the president and told him they were trying to figure out whether they were obligated to turn the complaint over to congress. >> and cnn has learned that the first official who moved to withhold aid came on the evening of july 25th. that's the same day president trump and the ukrainian

president had the phone call. a transcript of mark sandy's transcript was released yesterday. he told his boss withholding the aid may actually violate federal law. according to the testimony, two people left their job in part because of this. there's one big difference this time, president trump and his lawyers have been cordially invited to attend. let's bring in cnn senior politics adviser. good morning to you. on the front page of "the new york times," a story that is maybe not something the president is going to be giving thanks for. it shows sort of this timeline and what might have been going on when the president finally decided to unfreeze that aid. there were questions there about the legality and the timing of withholding that military aid.

what do we know? >> we already know the aid was released essentially just after the congress found out about the whistle-blower report, so it was already kind of fishy. but now if this "new york times" report is correct, we know that president trump actually knew about the whistle-blower long before, which makes it that much more kind of suspect. and it really attacks this main republican defense of president trump, that, well, the aid was ultimately released, so nothing wrong happened. but if the aid was released after everybody found out about the whistle-blower on capitol hill, it kind of makes -- it totally takes the argument away and it makes it seem as though the only reason the aid was ever released was because essentially as democrats say, they got caught. >> and the president has been

saying he had no quid pro quo with gordon sondland, which is after he was told about this whistle-blower complaint. for the republicans, do you think this will move the needle any? are we getting any closer to folks being able to say it is what it seems to say, that the president released the aid because he knew there was a complaint about it? >> i think everybody is thinking it's exactly what it's seemed for quite a while and it will do nothing to move the needle for republicans on capitol hill. it seems like people are set in stone with how they view this chain of events, and they're either going to be willing to overlook it or they don't care. but it really -- it does not seem like anybody is having their minds changed right now. >> in the meantime if you look at the ad buys in iowa, the front-runners in the democratic party are not talking about impeachment. they're each trying to cast their own message here to the iowan and the american people

over thanksgiving. let's get a little sampling here. >> all right. bernie fights for the average joe. >> that's the thing i like about him the most. >> the next president is going to face enormous challenges in picking up the pieces. >> enact the american deal and lead the global effort to save our planet? iowan eating turkey and watching football will also see bernie sanders talking about farmers, joe biden on foreign poll circle climate change for elizabeth warren. they're trying to proceed with the arguments that -- the non-impeachment arguments over the weekend. >> this all makes sense to me. all essentially agree on impeachment, so it's not going to differentiate them from each other. they want to make arguments that resound a little more, the kitchen table sort of arguments. also democrats are moving very quickly with impeachment. i think they're doing that because generally as a party, they want to get this done so

they can talk about this other stuff. and it sounds like a pretty wide open race. these arguments are so diverse among the top candidates. >> right. you have biden making this very commander in chief -- it already feels the like the general election whicher puts the ca pu before the horse. and then you have michael bloomberg with his millions, creating a punching bag for the elizabeth warrens and bernie sanderss of the world. >> there will be conversation on thanksgiving. the checks are going out for the farm bailout. >> the farm bailout is bigger than the auto bailout. think about that. >> we still have a long way to go. >> nice to see you, zach wolf. >> thanks. new insights from the anonymous trump insider in his

writes it's a poison inside the party. he raises deep concerns on the moral compass in next month's e lexs. let's go live to london, cnn's phil black. phil, has there been any reaction from corbyn? >> christine, there has. this is more than three years after criticism of jeremy corb n corbyn, the labor leader, and the petr. the other criticism from the jewish community is that the party hasn't done enough to wipe it out. for all of those years, jeremy corbyn said we're dealing with this, we're taking it seriously. but now that they've touched on it, it is damning. the timing is poor because we're in the middle of an election campaign. here is a direct quote. he says it is a failure to see
