Hillary Clinton is a supporter of the fossil fuel industry and a defender of fracking, and told a private meeting last year that extreme environmental activists need to “get a life,” according to new illegally obtained emails posted by WikiLeaks.

“[M]y view is I want to defend natural gas,” Clinton said in a transcript of a private meeting with a trade union last September that was sent to her campaign. The emails are from the hacked accounts of Clinton’s campaign chairman John Podesta.
