    No, they arent immune, but thats why China has an extensive anticorruption police system. Corruption was a big problem and endemic in the 2000s, so when Xi Jinping came to power in 2012, he created a special anticorruption bureau to crush corruption. He spared noone, even top level party members like Zhou Yongkang were imprisoned. Zhou was a member of the Politburo Standing Committee of the CPC, the most powerful political organ in China, and yet he was still sentenced to life in prison. In the US this never happens, thats the difference.
