He can be impeached by Congress for "treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors." And since we elect our Congressional officials, then technically yes "we" can remove the president from office.

Can a president fire appointees after they have been confirmed by the senate?

The Senate has the power to approve or consent to the appointment of an individual a president nominates to be a member of the Cabinet. However, it has no authority to fire that individual once confirmed. Only the President can fire a Cabinet member. While Congress has no power to fire a Cabinet member, Congress it does have the power of the impeachment process to remove, not fire, the Cabinet member. Grounds for impeachment and removal of a Cabinet member are the same as those for impeachment and removal of the President.
