In order to remove someone from congress, you would have to rely on a process which is called impeachment or a "motion of no confidence". Usually when someone in a congress seat or individual office such as a mayor or governor has been removed, it has been through the individual renouncing his position.
As far as presidential goes only 2 presidents has gone through the process. Andrew Johnson in 1867 and Bill Clinton in 1999. Both Process did not remove any of those.
as far as to remove the whole congress from office at once, only a military coupe can do that. A citizen could also bring that congressperson to court but it not a very usual method.
