I put this together after experimenting with ggplot2 and ggnetwork earlier this week. The changes I made added svgPanZoom into the mix. Consequently, it has a widget in it, so it was just easier to embed the full R markdown HTML into an iframe than to try to extract the content piecemeal into WP. You can bust the iframe via http://rud.is/projects/clinton_emails_01.html. Read on to see how to grab some JSON, create edge list, do some basic graph stats with igraph and generate an interactive visualization with ggplot2 and svgPanZoom.
