The FBI says 3 men were charged in what they’re calling a “murder-for-hire” plot targeting multiple people, including President-elect Donald Trump. NBC’s Marissa Parra reports for TODAY.

FBI Director Christopher Wray and Donald Trump's team are planning for the possibility that the president-elect will replace Wray during the new administration, three people familiar with the matter told NBC News. One person under consideration for Wray's job is Trump adviser Kash Patel, who is also being considered to lead the CIA, according to two other sources.

“I assume that’s the best apology that we’ll get from Director Wray, but it is fully accepted!” he wrote. In recent days, Trump has been making staffing announcements for top posts in his administration, including White House chief of staff Susie Wiles and 'border czar' Tom Homan. Installing a new FBI director would require Senate confirmation in a chamber where Republicans will be in the majority starting in January.
