We might want to rethink DEI and a left-wing political stance as the sole qualifications for high-level law enforcement positions.
Via Fox News:
A North Carolina House Oversight Committee hearing spurred on by the recent killing of a young Ukrainian woman, Iryna Zarutska, in Charlotte, took an unexpected turn when [Republican State Representative Allen] Chesser asked Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden, “What branch of government do you operate under?”
McFadden, who is the top law enforcement officer in the county where Zarutska was killed, simply answered, “Mecklenburg County,” prompting Chesser to repeat, “What branch of government do you operate under, sheriff?”
McFadden’s next guess was “Constitution of the United States.”
Chesser remarked, “This is not where I was anticipating getting stuck. Um, are you aware of how many branches of government there are?” The sheriff quickly shot back, “No.”
At least he answered that last question correctly.
Chesser continued, “For the sake of debate, let’s say there are three branches of government: legislative, executive, judicial. Of those three, which do you fall under?”
McFadden guessed “judicial,” probably because it was the last one listed and the only one he could remember.
As for why McFadden has refused to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement, he previously averred the following:
“We do not have a role in enforcement whatsoever, we do not have to follow the rules and the laws that are governed by our lawmakers in Raleigh.”
McFadden’s conspicuous cognitive impairment makes it unlikely that he could have secured his lofty position if not for his race. We are getting to the point where DEI is not funny anymore and needs to end before it destroys our country.

Heh
What uniform is that? I don’t recall ever seeing a 4-Star sheriff before.
Perfect leftist. Dumb as a post and proud of it. In his official portrait he has the smug look down pat

Not only is he inept he knows it and gets mad about it. That is the problem, they resent their inability and want someone to blame for it so they blame whitey.
They don’t care. The real owners of the country want people like this in positions of power.
Of course they do. They are Yuri Bezmenov’s Useful Idiots.
Maybe they do own the country but I hope they are “just” the rulers.
Sure, but I've never given a thought to which branch a local sheriff would fall under.
4 stars LOL
He sure has a lot of metal showing how “important” he is......
Dumb woman had a baby with rock
Fatigue.
Is he related to the Garry McFadden on “I Am Homicide” and other real life cop shows?
Over three decades with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, McFadden had worked more than 800 homicides with a clearance rate north of 90 percent.
All you inmates may want to start to file appeals.....
I mean I could see him saying "I'm the Captain Sheriff now ...
Pretty soon he will look like a senior doorman at the Ritz—“Boy, take my bags up to room 310, and make it snappy!”
