57 newsroom at cbs headquarters here in new york. good to be with you. i'm anne-marie green. we could soon be getting a glimpse into the closed door interviews by house investigators in the impeachment inquiry into president trump. democrats are expected to start releasing transcripts of the interviews as early as today. they've also asked nearly a dozen more people to testify this week about mr. trump's dealings with ukraine. laura podesta is here in new york. the president renewed his call for the anonymous whistle-blower to be identified. what did he say? >> reporter: yeah, the president said the whistle-blower is, quote, anti-trump and that person gave a very inaccurate report about the phone call with the president of ukraine. he also claimed via tweet that the news media knows the whistle-blower's identity but is covet president trump ramped up his attacks on the anonymous whistle-blower this weekend. >> the whistle-blower should be revealed because the whistle-blower gave false stories.

some people would call it fraud. >> reporter: the whistle-blower's secondhand account about the president's phone call with ukraine's president has been the roadmap for the impeachment inquiry. >> the whistle-blower gave a very inaccurate report about my phone call. my phone call was perfecto. it was totally appropriate. >> reporter: house democrats say there's no need to question that person since investigators have corroborated the details through other testimony. >> witness after witness after witness says, yes, i was there, i listened, those are the facts. that's what's critical in any trial. you wouldn't call the whistle-blower -- what you call is the people who were actually >>tee. whistle-blower'sne his clie is willing tor shouldbere t mepublin committee. heds tanswer the questions. >> reporter: democrats believe nothing will satisfy republicans. >> the republicans keep moving the goalpost. they tell us they want us to be transparent, when we're

transparent, it's not good enough. >> reporter: transcripts of the closed door depositions are expected to be release thursday week with public hearings coming later this month. and house democrats hope their star witness this week will be former national security adviser john bolton who they've asked to come testify on thursday. we know that a handful of other current white house officials have already said they will not show up this week including members of the office of management and budget whose spokesperson called the investigation a sham. anne-marie? >> it's going to be an interesting week. laura podesta in new york. thank you so much, laura. >> thanks. now to campaign 2020. we are officially less than one year away from the presidential election. 17 democrats are still in the race vying for the party's nomination to run against president trump. ed o'keefe breaks down the shifting field from des moines, iowa. >> reporter: polling released this weekend shows that nationally the democratic race for president is a three-person race between former vice president joe biden and senators bernie sanders and elizabeth warren.

here in iowa where the candidates are paying more attention to the voters and the voters to the candidates, it's indiana mayor pete buttigieg who has slipped to third ahead of biden. buttigieg irritated some suggesting it's quickly becoming a two-person race between him, the moderate, and liberal senator warren. he backtracked a bit on sunday, but not before some of his opponents including california senator kamala harris pounced. >> i think that that's just -- it's naive for him to think that at this point that the fate of this election has been determined. just look at history. he might need to review past elections to know that what's happening is not necessarily determinative of the outcome. >> reporter: harris is the first of what we expect to be several campaigns who must win in iowa. she's laid off most of her staff in new hampshire vowing to do well enough here in iowa to continue on.

that's not a sign that the end is near, it's a good example of recalibrating. back in 2003 when he was in the single digits, john kerry did much the same in iowa before winning the caucus and nomination. in 2007 with a skeleton staff, republican john mccain did it in new hampshire before turning his campaign around and winning his party's nomination. sunday marks 92 days until the iowa caucus and exactly one year until election day, 2020. ed o'keefe, cbs news, des moines, iowa. to california now. as fire crews gain an edge on the wildfires that ravaged the state for days, president trump is threatening to cut federal aid. yesterday the president attacked california governor gavin newsom on twitter. he accused newsom of doing a terrible job of forest management, despite forest land accounting for very few of the acres burned. mr. trump also criticized newsom for coming to the federal government for help, writing "no more." wildfires have scorched tens of

thousands of acres and destroyed hundred of buildings across the state in recent weeks. authorities lifted all mandatory evacuations for the maria wildfire northwest of los angeles. progress is also being made against the massive kincade fire in northern california's wine country. most evacuation orders have been lifted there as crews put out spot fires and continue to clean up operations. also in california, a manhunt is underway for two murder suspects who escaped from jail. jonathan salazar and santos vonseka were discovered missing from the jail during a routine inmate count yesterday. monterey is 100 miles south of san francisco. they were facing charges for separate murders. it's unclear whether they worked together to escape. they're warning people to keep e who's out there, and you just have to take precautions all the

time and not just with something like a breakout. it's a good practice to have your purse next to you in the car and the doors locked. >> an investigation is underway to determine how the inmates escaped from the high-security facility. and police in texas are expected to release new information today about the apparent murder of a new hampshire couple. the bodies of retired navy veteran james butler and his wife michelle were discovered buried in sand dunes last week on padre island outside of corpus christi. they began a cross-country trip in a truck, an rv trailer, and have been missing for two weeks. there's surveillance video of the truck and r.v. crossing the mexico border on october 21st, but the driver is not james butler. police are calling their deaths homicides. >> you never think it will be you, and then it is, and it's hard. >> a vigil for the couple was held last night in their hometown of rumney, new hampshire.
