Well as someone who's never heard of Flint Global, I think the fossil fuel link required supporting data.

Even still, having worked in the past for a company that did lobbying for many industries, one of which was fossils is still a ways from "fossil fuel lobbyist". That sort of claim requires more direct evidence for me.

He is however the former chair of Friends of Israel though, so I think were on the same "fuck this guy" page.
