NEW: Senator Mazie Hirono says making FBI agents pass a pull-up test is "harsh" because there are women with "physiological differences" who can't do them.

Hirono: "Are you requiring these kinds of pull-ups?"

Patel: "If you wanna chase down a bad guy and put him in handcuffs, you better be able to do a pull-up."

Hirono: "The reason I ask is that there are concerns about whether or not being able to do these kinds of harsh pull-ups is really required of FBI agents."

Patel: "Doing one pull-up is not harsh."

What a joke.

Sept 16, 2025 

ransomnote: After Hironomo made her plea for separate standards,   Senator Britt followed up (see video) with her excellent statements thanking Hironomo for acknowledging physiological differences between men and women and how the issue was also present in Title 9 (women/men sports) and said she hoped Hironomo's statement could be used to further discussions with her peers across the aisle.

Whaaa....? Hasn’t she been paying attention to all the propaganda? Women are physically different than men? Gasp!

Women are the same as men. Women are different from men. Pick whichever one suits your needs at the moment.

So she’s admitting that there ARE physical differences between what men can do, and women might struggle to do. According to her, if you want to be an FBI agent, that’s not good for women, but if you want to pretend you’re a woman for sports’ records, that’s okay.

Some time ago a female postal worker sued the USPO saying that she was paid less than her male counterpart. She did prove that she was paid less, so the PO increased her pay to that of the male PO worker.

The next day, for the first time, she was sent to the loading dock where men were unloading mail trucks and loading the sacks onto carts. It was not uncommon for the sacks to weigh over 100lbs.

She left for lunch and was never returned.

There are men that can’t do a single pull up too. Guess what....they aren’t FBI agents.

300 years from now, when historians are writing about this era in USA history, they will focus on her as a prime example of the problems with US government and culture.

Wow, this shows that, as vapid as only DemocRAT congress-critters can be, they show more intelligence than a certain moron-level female Supreme Court “just-us”.

This would be like hiring physics professors who can’t do algebra or calculus because the candidates are “math disadvantaged” and “math is racist”.

Mazie Hirono appears to be offended by MANY things she observes in US culture. She is the picture of the ultimate “anchor baby”, only by accident of her mother’s birth in Hawaii, herself born in Japan of a Japanese citizen father and this unassimilated mother, and raised largely outside any contact with non-Japanese students or neighbors. Mazie was granted US citizenship by naturalization in 1959, at age 22, after graduation from Kaimuki High School, a majority Japanese-American school, and went on to educational progress through two very liberal institutions, University of Hawaii-Mānoa, and later Georgetown Law School in Washington, DC.

She is not a credit to her adopted country.

Senator Hirono reads from notes created by her Woke staff and has no idea what she is saying. She sounds like she is well into dementia.

She is so impossibly stupid and inept she can’t figure out the orders given to all Dems every day. “Working families” “existential threat to democracy” “toxic masculinity” “America was founded as a place to gather and market slaves”.

She doesn’t know women demand overwhelming power over men but if in trouble say “What? I’m only a girl” (sobbing for sympathy). As in divorce.

Norman Mailer after losing millions of dollars in divorce courts for assumed future potential earnings IF his wives would have made it to the pinnacles of stardom if not held back by marriage and child rearing with Mailer:

“It is a terrible shame the American public lost out on the
great achievements in film and Broadway by my wives.”

Once they secured the money the women dropped out of their low level acting careers.

I let that Joe Biden feel me and sniff my hair last time. But if he tries to grab my ice cone away he’ll think twice.

But, but, there is no difference between men who compete against women in sports, right Mazie?

"She is not a credit to her adopted country."

She was born in Japan. Her father was in the Japanese Army in WWII, and he was an alcoholic. Probably inherited some of his alcohol poisoned genes.

What's a woman, Senator?

As an aside, up until 3 years ago, I did CrossFit. Nearly every woman there, except beginners, could do pull-ups. Many could do muscle-ups.
