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.
