Our notesPolitico returned 403 and the Wayback Machine had no copy, so only the triage excerpt was read; the saved sources file for this id holds the Fox News transcript from an also item, which is not the Politico story and was not used. Hawley's first name comes from general knowledge of the name in the title: confirm it, and the Senate role, on the page.
