A redacted version of the Mueller Report shows how Russian influence in the 2016 Presidential Election even reached Houston.


An Instagram post about a confederate rally in Houston is cited in special counsel Robert Mueller’s report as the “earliest evidence” of Russian influence in political rallies that happened across the United States.

Page 29 of the Mueller investigation on Russian influence in the 2016 presidential election states: “The Office identified dozens of U.S. rallies organized by the IRA (St. Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency). The earliest evidence of a rally was a “confederate rally” in November 2015.”

In a footnote, the report refers to an Instagram post about a Houston-area rally planned for November 14, 2015.

The report also says: “The IRA (Internet Research Agency) continued to organize rallies even after the 2016 U.S. presidential election. The attendance at rallies varied. Some rallies appear to have drawn few (if any) participants, while others drew hundreds. The reach and success of these rallies was closely monitored.”

In the U.S. elementary schools of the '50's we were taught how to resist communist propaganda by recognizing it as having the elements of propaganda.
