coming ahead this hour, emails just released. yes, we're talking about emails again, show how the white house helped coordinate rudy giuliani's efforts in yuge. also this hour, a new accusation against one of donald trump's biggest defenders in congress and his alleged role in trying to get dirt on the bidens. we're talking about devin nunes there. and she's the best gymnast in the world. next, why simone biles is

calling for another investigation into the team's former abusive doctor. welcome to our viewers here in the united states and all around the world, i'm natalie allen. thank you so much for joining us. this is "cnn newsroom." thank you again for joining us. developing overnight, we have new developments for you on this same story regarding the impeachment inquiry. newly released documents give us a clearer view of how president trump's personal lawyer rudy giuliani coordinated his efforts in ukraine, through the white house. and it's coming directly from the u.s. state department. the information results from the freedom of information lawsuit filed by the group called american oversight. email exchanges spell out how the white house helpedarrange a

phone call between giuliani and u.s. secretary of state mike pompeo. this took place the day after giuliani handed over materials with unproven claims about former vice president seen here, joe biden and his son hunter. documents show that mike pompeo spoke with giuliani briefly twice in late march. the first time occurring before giuliani handed over that information. it was the second conversation facilitated by the white house. for that call, giuliani's assistant reached out to president trump's then executive assistant madeline westerhouse, seen mere with rick perry. giuliani's assistant said she was getting nowhere through regular channels, end quote. he asked how to get giuliani and pompeo in touch. a lawyer an associate of

giuliani said his willing is willing to testify before congress about the alleged role of congressman devin nunes as we mentioned in trying to dig up dirt on the bidens. his attorney says his client lev parnas claims he helped with this man, disgraced ukrainian prosecute vicar shokin. >> so his lawyer says that lev parnas would like to come and speak to congress. and that he would say to congress, were he given the opportunity that last december, devin nunes, a senior republican presiding over the impeachment hearings went to vienna and met with viktor shokin. >> viktor shokin, the person who was the prosecutor for ukraine, that ukraine and everybody in the united states wanted out for not investigating corruption? >> correct.

and who was fired in 2016 under pressure by many western leaders, including our then vice president joe biden. he has an ax to grind against the bidens. viktor shokin is the man who has claimed to have dirt on joe and hunter biden. he has claimed to have evidence that ukraine meddled in our elections. >> reportedly met with rudy giuliani. >> absolutely. >> rudy giuliani wanted to get him a pass to come to the united states and it was denied. >> absolutely correct. >> well, nunes declined cnn's multiple request for comment. next week is the annual holiday of thanksgiving and but many will be burning the midnight oil on capitol hill. that is because they'll be pulling together the report from the impeachment hearings in the next several weeks. the matter then goes to the

house judiciary committee which is expected to draft articles of impeachment. a vote by the full house could come by christmas. here's cnn's manu raju with more about it. >> reporter: house democrats are planning to take their impeachment deliberations behind the scenes. and expect those deliberations to be intense and active over the next several of days, including next week. thanksgiving week. a holiday week in the u.s. in which the lawmakers are going to be gone on recess but staff of the recent committees as well as members of nancy pelosi's staff will discuss exactly how to move fore. and the first thing they're going to do is finish a report being written right now by the house intelligence committee along with two other committees detailing the findings of this investigation that has been going on for roughly seven weeks. this investigation, of course, is focused on the issue of ukraine, the president's handling of the relations with that country and whether or not he withheld security assistance from that country, roughly $400 million. as well as a key meeting between

the ukrainian government and the white house in exchange for an investigation that could help the president politically. and it will focus on abuse of power by the president and while potentially focus on bribely, obstruction of justice, obstruction of congress. obstruction of justice for one there was a discussion whether or not to include the episodes of destruction that were played out in the mueller report that showed the president allegedly interfering with his campaign. nancy pelosi will keep it focused but there's a question of making it broader. but a report that is go going to be released in the next few days. that will be considered by the houses judiciary committee likely the first week or first two weeks of december. at that point, that committee will vote on articles of impeachment. then it will go to the full house which could vote then before christmas to make president trump the third

american president in history to get impeached. after that, it would go to the senate led by republicans and that senate trial could take two weeks, four weeks, right now, both sides agree on this. republicans are unlikely to commit and remove the president from office. all of this at the end of the day will be ultimately up to the voters on whether or not president trump should stay in office. well, the public testimony of 12 witnesses were fairly consistent in asserting the president's july 25th phone call with ukraine's leader amounted to, we all that term now, a quid pro quo. for more on this, here's cnn's jim acosta. >> reporter: still stinging from a week full of damaging testimony in the impeachment inquiry, president trump has dug in, refusing to answer some of the looming questions hanging over his administration. one top white house official tried to stop us from asking the question. any response to fiona hill?

mr. president, fee knowniona hi said -- can you respond to fiona hill? you're done? >> reporter: the president would not respond to testimony from his former adviser on russia fiona hill. who told lawmakers that ukraine meddled in the 2016 election senior false but the president kept rebating that debunked claim on fox. >> they used the server for cloud striker or whatever it's call, i still want to see that server. >> reporter: but that's not true. hill testified. >> it's being propagated by the russian security services themselves. >> reporter: well aware that democrats are moving towards impeachment in the house. republicans are now looking towards republicans to save him during a senate trial. white house officials tell cnn a

trial could actually give mr. trump a political boost. the president turned to fox news to fond with falsehoods and fabrications, mr. trump continued to say he barely know ambassador gordon sondland. who testified there was a quid pro quo. >> now, this guy, who, by the way, i hardly know him, okay? >> sondland? >> yeah, i've spoken to him a few times. >> reporter: that's not what sondland says? >> and he has spoken to you often? >> what's often? >> you say at least 20 times? >> okay, if that's often, then that's often. >> reporter: the president also slammed ambassador marie yovanovitch saying she was out to get him. >> but this ambassador who everyone says is so wonderful, she wouldn't hang my picture in the embassy. >> reporter: the president may want to consider a different figure in the ukraine saga, former national secured adviser john bolton.

out of fear of what i might say to those who speculated, i went into hiding, i'm sorry to disappoint. but the president says that's not true. did you guys freeze his account? >> no, of course not. >> reporter: the only question mr. trump would take from reporters on the inquiry, his feelings about the whistle-blower. >> whistle-blower, i don't think there is -- i consider it to be a fake whistle-blower. >> reporter: gop officials say expect to see a trial in the senate as the president is likely to be impeached in the house. one search that investigators are looking to the clinton impeachment trial as a guide. white house officials are eyeing that trial as an opportunity to bring in a slew of their own choice witnesses, from hunter biden to the whistle-blower. jim acosta, cnn, the white house. well, let's talk about developments with leslie vinjamuri. hi, leslie. good morning to you. >> good morning, thank you. >> all right.

we just heard, yes, fake news, fake this -- that is the president's playbook. and he's been playing it hard. what do you make of president trump's daring democrats to put him on trial in the senate? he's given the impression he's got nothing to fear. he remained defiant, talking with fox news? >> well, remember, this is the president's approach. he also, if you go back a few weeks or a few months, he was bearing the democrats to begin impeachment hearings. i think there are a couple of things here. first, of course, he knows at this point he has the -- he has the republican voters on his side. and he has the republicans in senate. and he has a majority. so, he isn't worried that he's going to lose the vote. but i think more importantly, the president knows that a lot of what matters when we move to the senate is what the narrative looks like, how it plays out. how the story is told. and i think, frankly, that he relishes the opportunity to see

a very different narrative. to really drill down in the senate on the idea that has been pushed by the president and those around him that this is not an impeachable offense. that this is a witch hunt by the democrats. i think he's really looking to impact the voter in the leadup to the primaries and to the 2020 elections. now, whether that will back fire, how that will actually transpire is very difficult to predict. but i do think that this president is trying to absolutely capture that narrative. >> right. because there are questions now about if the president is impeached, will that hurt him or help him as we push on to this 2020 election. >> that's right. and, again, a lot of this comes down to how fixed you think public attitudes are and whether they will change. if you look at the pollings, americans are divided pretty equally on whether or not they support impeachment. but when you drill down and you

look at partisan attitudes, democrats are very much in support. republicans are very much opposed. but that independent voter is at around 41%. so, you know, one question is, will independent voters -- will their attitudes change? and will they take this to the polls. so, you know, if we begin to look beyond the question of the outcome of the impeachment, these hearings matter critically, for the elections. whether they change people's attitudes. and also whether when people go to the polls they're still thinking about the impeachment. and if there's a backlash, then that could have a very negative impact. >> back to what we saw in the past few weeks with the testimony, hours and hours of testimony, it ended this week with fiona hill. she was straightforward, debunking the president's claim that it was ukraine, not russia that interfered in the election.

but he continues not to back down. they called it a fictional narrative propagated by the russians. then the president goes right back on tv on fox and kept at it. and that seems that's going to be what he does, regardless of what kind of testimony we hear. and we still could hear from john bolton who is teasing us that he may still be employed here. >> that's right, fiona hill's testimony was extraordinary. very powerful. and, remember, this is somebody who has worked for a very long time in government. and served, again, across parties, is not political. is nonpartisan. and was really trying to cull out the fact that what she was seeing from the inside was the policy towards ukraine, america's policy towards ukraine was not being driven by america's national security concerns. and secondly, as you mentioned, that the narrative that trump

was trying to construct that this was about ukrainian interference in the 2016 elections simply isn't held up by the fact, the president is going to try to undermine the veracity of what's emerging as, frankly, uncontestable facts but, you know, there's. two things for the republicans, are they going to support him and say the facts contest the basic claims that are coming out very clearly. or are they going to say this is not an impeachable offense. if you move past the president, go to "the wall street journal," the editors there, they're saying this is not an impeachable offense. the american people will have to decide. if they're watching fox news. i think the confusion around this is going to be very significant. but i think it will come down ultimately to whether or not people think this is an impeachable offense. >> well, good to watch it, because they continue to work through it through the thanksgiving holiday. and will he be impeached by

christmas? we'll wait and see. we appreciate your insights, leslie vinjamuri, thank you, leslie. >> thank you. next, a crucial election day in hong kong. we'll tell you what's at stake on sunday. and the impact it could have on the ever-powerful pro-democracy movement. also, embattled and defiant. we're talking about the israeli prime minister who faces the fight of his political life. we'll go live to jerusalem, after this. you can cook foods that are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. the ninja foodi pressure cooker, the pressure cooker that crisps.

this is bogota, colombia, loud bangs and plumes of tear gas sent protesters running for cover in the capital. thousands have gathered to denounce the president's policies when they were dispersed by police. in response to the unrest, a curfew was imposed and police are out in force. reports of looting and confrontations with police have put people on edge. a cnn reporter described the city gripped by fear. some defied the curfew and gathered outside of the president's home to protest some more. in hong kong, police are braced for unrest during local elections coming this sunday. over the past few weeks, we've seen brutal attacks on both pro-democracy and pro-beijing candidates. riot police are being deployed

to polling stations as a precaution. more than 4 million people are able to vote in the elections. and for the first time, all of hong kong's district councils are being protested. and largest beijing, 179 candidates and the pro-democracy, 397 candidates. sunday's violence followed the worst violence the city has seen since the protests began. last week, clashes broke out when demonstrators occupied a university. cnn's paula hancocks spoke to protesters who managed to escape an arrest. >> reporter: it was a dramatic escape caught on camera. protesters fleeing hong kong polytechic university, by

repelling from a bridge. one of those who escaped tells us she would have done anything not to be arrested by police. and face a maximum of ten years in prison on charges of rioting. we're not identifying her to protect her safety. >> translator: we were on the bridge, and we heard someone shouting, don't look back. if you can escape, just leave. when the police seemed to step back a little bit, me and my friends decided to absail without gloves. >> reporter: her job was to pour water on the tear gas canisters to stop the smoke. like many protesters, she defends the violence. >> translator: protesters do not want to use violence, but violence is a way to create large attention. petrol bombs are for protecting protesters. >> reporter: on the phone, i spoke to another woman who escaped. she does not want to be filmed

and does not tell us how she escaped for fear that police will identify her. >> translator: the purchase will continue. everyone has learned from a mistake this time. so they won't defend the university anymore because the important of this protest is to be water. >> reporter: some managed to escape through the campus sewer system, although others were arrested. the new police commissioner appealed to protesters again on friday to leave the campus hoping it would leave peacefully. >> translator: it is very dangerous inside as there are a lot of explosives and gasoline bombs. the environment is very bad there. >> reporter: for the parents of those refusing to leave, all they can do is wait and watch. police have rejected at least to go inside on safety grounds. one pastor is going in on their behalf to convince the protesters to leave. so how are the protesters coping? >> they're quite nervous and

sad. with the sense of despair. and quite emotional. >> reporter: there are some under the age of 18 inside who police say they will not arrest. others who haven't slept in days in a growing sense of desperation to avoid arrest at all costs. paula hancocks, cnn, hong kong. >> we will, of course, be reporting on the election which takes place sunday. israel's prime minister has promised to accept any court decision he may face, but benjamin netanyahu also claims that investigators acted illegally. the country's attorney general announced multiple charges against mr. netanyahu this week. this talk about it with our paula newton, she is covering the story for us from jerusalem. and there are charges and now countercharges from netanyahu. what's the latest, paula? >> reporter: yeah, i mean in terms of benjamin netanyahu, he remains defiant and of course is going to fight this. what's interesting how he's chosen to fight it. and the one thing you can't mistake, natalie, was the fact

that he borrowed language from president trump in terms of call of these indictments politically motivated, saying it was a witch hunt and a coup. and saying that the investigators need to be investigated. what does that mean? he's saying that the very basis on which this investigation may imply is that. and the message, a day of rest, it doesn't matter your political persuasion, you could use a rest today given the shabbat message. all of these protests will be decided in court and we will accept the court's decision. there is no doubt about it. this is a framework, we will safe guard it and we will always in the end and the beginning act by the rule of law. of course, that's important in terms what he's saying there. but this is the key here. this means that those who did not act by law in the police or in the prosecution, there should

be an examination. it should be dealt with. and there should be a remedy. what is he trying to say there, natalie? he's trying to say, look, he wants these charges looked into. he wants to know why they were leveled against him. he denies them, this is breach of trust, fraud and bribery, all of which carry prison charges, they're very serious charges. and you're starting to get insight into benjamin netanyahu and how he plans to take this on. remember, we're in a state of political limbo here in israel. after two elections, a stalemate, still no resolutions on who will form a new government. >> and now this. paula newton, thank you. his name has been on almost everyone's list here in the u.s., throughout the impeachment inquiry. but john bolton has been mostly silent until now. what the former national security adviser is saying, that's next. plus, carter page was a

welcome back to our viewers here in the united states in atlanta. and around the world. i'm natalie allen. newly released documented from the white house state department showed the white house helped arrange a phone call between the president's lawyer rudy giuliani and the u.s. secretary of state mike pompeo.

that took place the day after giuliani provided a package to the state department containing unproven allegations against u.s. democratic candidate joe biden and his son hunter. a lawyer representing an indicted associate of president trump's attorney rudy giuliani announced that devin nunes met with ex-ukrainian officials last year. nunes denied multiple requests for comment from cnn. a series of tweets on friday from former national security adviser john bolton attracted a lot of attention mostly because of what they said and because bolton has been silent since leave the post. here's cnn's brian todd with more about it. >> reporter: he's been one of the ghosts of the impeachment hearings, on a list of key figures like mike pompeo, rudy giuliani and mick mulvaney who didn't testify.

but former national security adviser john bolton could know more about all of the allegations that president trump could have used his power to investigate joe and hunter biden. >> john bolton has been one of the most mysterious figures. he was one of the biggest starring players in the whole episode with ukraine. and yet, he was an off-stage character almost the entire time in the impeachment probe. >> reporter: but on friday, after more than two months of silence, a tease from john bolton. in a series of tweets and later with an encounter with reporters, he accused the white house of blocking his twitter account. >> they attached software to it. and twitter unattached the software to it. >> reporter: bolton didn't explain what that meant. president trump and the white house denied blocking and freezing bolton's twitter account. >> no, of course not. of course not. i actually had a good relationship with john. >> reporter: in a tweet, bolton asked whether twitter blocked

his account, quote, out of fear of what i might say. in accounts that his top aide fiona hill said about bolton's concerns about pressure in ukraine. >> he then said that rudy giuliani was a hand grenade that was going to blow everyone up. >> reporter: hill said bolton physically stiffened at a july meeting when u.s. ambassador gordon sondland first linked to ukraine investigating the bidens. hill said bolton immediately walked out of the meeting and gave her an ominous directive afterwards. >> specific instruction was that i had to go to the lawyers, to john eisenberg, our senior council for the national security council, to basically say you tell eisenberg, ambassador bolton told me, i'm not part of whatever drug deal that mulvaney and sondland are cooking up. >> reporter: and american diplomat david holmes testified that bolton met with ukraine's president in august. and warned him what it would

take to lift a whole on u.s. military aid in ukraine. >> it would hang on whether or not president zelensky was able to trust president trump. >> reporter: in a meeting, saying bolton was involved in many relevant conversations and meetings that have not been discussed in the testimony thus far. >> what could we have witnessed? john bolton would have had more than anything we've heard to date. anything that the president said in john bolton's presence about the pressure campaign on the ukrainians would be enormously significant testimony. >> reporter: including one meeting that an aide testified bolton had with trump in august, where the aide said bolton tried and failed to get trump to lift the hold on u.s. military aid to ukraine. among the crucial looming questions are, when will john bolton reveal what will he knows about the yuge dealings and in

what forum? bolton's lawyer said he wouldn't testify at impeachment hearings, unless a judge forced him to. and he wasn't subpoenaed by house democrats. but he might have to testify at a senate impeachment trial. or bolton's first revelations could come in a new book he's writing which is due out next year. sometime before the i election. brian todd, cnn, washington. joe biden has some strong words for republican senator lindsey graham. he spoke with cnn's don lemon in the key state of south carolina friday. here he is. >> let me ask you, because lindsey graham now, who you've worked with, who was a friend, who i know there's a video of you saying you're the nicest person he ever met. you're the greatest man. and now he's asking the state department for documents of you and your son. what do you say to lindsey graham and folks like him? >> they're asking lindsey graham, they have him under

their thumb. they know he knows if he comes out against trump, he's got a tough road for reelection, number one. i'm quite disappointed and quite frankly, i'm angered by the fact he knows me. he knows my son. he knows there's nothing to this. trump is now essentially holding power over him that even the ukrainians would not yield to. ukrainians would not yield to, quote, investigate biden, there's nothing to investigate about biden and his son. and lindsey is about to go down in a way he's about to regret his whole life. >> what do you say to him? >> i say, lindsey, i am just embarrassed by what you're doing. are you? i mean, my lord. >> joe biden there with don lemon. well, president trump routinely denounced the mueller investigation to russian meddling at the political witch

hunt without merit. the origins of the investigation that started it all are now the subject of a lengthy official review by the u.s. justice department. and as the so-called horowitz report is expected to show, mistakes were made. cnn's evan perez has the details. >> reporter: the justice department is investigating a former fbi lawyer who allegedly altered an internal document used to prepare the 2016 surveillance war application on a former trump campaign adviser. the altered document is among a number of mistakes that are expected to be cited in an upcoming report by justice department inspector general michael horowitz. despite the mistakes, horwitz's report is expected to find that the court-ordered investigation of carter page was valid. and the report is also expected to conclude that the fbi improperly opened investigations between trump campaign figures and russia in 2016. but it's those mistakes

including the altered document that will likely add fuel to criticisms of the fbi by president trump and his allies. the low-level lawyer who allegedly altered the document is now the subject of a criminal investigation by john durham, who was pointed by attorney general bill barr to take another look at the intelligence used in the 2016 trush-russia investigation. the president has said that he and his campaign were illegally targeted by the russia investigation. but the horowitz inspector general report is not expected to support that claim by the president. evan perez, cnn, washington. next here, swastika, racist stickers, sexist social media posts. students are fighting back after u.s. universities are hit with hate crimes. we'll tell you about that. also how olympic gold medalist is kept out of the loop, why the gymnast is outraged over the investigation of her former team doctor. - [spokeswoman] meet the ninja foodi pressure cooker,

waste and farm fires in nearby india. that sounds like a terrible mix. derek van dam is on the story for us. >> couldn't agree more. you said it, summarized it well. thick, toxic smog, not what you want to the hear about but it's an all too familiar sight in india and pakistan. especially in november and december. this is a typical story that we cover this time of year. i mean, just look at that thick brown haze that has settled over this extremely populated part of pakistan. i mean, it's incredible. the government closing down schools there as well. because you know, natalie, that the top four global leading causes of death go from my blood pressure, diet to smoking and then air pollution. i mean, this is incredible what is happening here. we'll get to the graphics and we'll try to break it down to you because the climate crisis continues to worsen. just look at this. i found this absolutely incredible. from the health effects institute, the number four leading cause of death across the planet is from air pollution alone.

so, we dug a little deeper into statistics across pakistan. and this is a big group. but it's important, it raises alarm bells. annual fatalities caused by air pollution, over 300,000 people in pakistan alone. that's 22% of their annual fatalities that occur for that particular country. so what is happening here? let's dig in deeper. we've got combustion particles, when we emit the co2 in the air, from industry, agriculture, for use of land, we're talking very small micron size particles. 2 1/2 microns are smaller. that is smaller than the average human hair. the it diameter of a human hair. that means when we breathe it in, it breathes deep into our chest cavity and exacerbates people's problems with asthma, for instance, and lung concerns. on friday alone, in lahore, in

pakistan, they've reached the highest levels they've experienced so far. there is moderate relief in sight. but still unhealthy conditions expected across the area. it is all thanks to the himalayas. well, this is in part to the problem. because we talk about it every year. the smog builds up, gets trapped in the region. northern pakistan -- northern india, has some of the highest concentration of polluted cities across the world. 14 of 20 most polluted cities there. and look what they're having to deal with. incredible. >> yeah, yeah. and it's man-made. >> right, exactly. >> thank you. let's end on this one, the world of a 12-year-old minnesota boy just became a lot brighter. jonathan jones is his name and he is color blind. that is, until he tried on a pair of glasses from his science teacher. take a look at the emotional moment he saw color for the first time. >> see what it does.

so what are you thinking? like the results? >> oh. the glasses cost about $350. his mom said they're going to buy him a pair. and started a gofundme to raise money for other color blind children. we've seen adults have a reaction around the world. thank you for watching "cnn newsroom." i'm natalie allen. if you're joining us, "new day" is next. if you're an international viewer, i'll be back with the headlines.
