Who has the power to do impeachment?

This depends on whom you are talking about impeaching. For the impeachment of a Federal Official such as, but not only the President of the United States. In Federal cases, the House of Representatives impeaches the Official by a simple majority vote of the House. Impeachment does not mean the Official is removed from office. This simply serves as the indictment of the Official. After the impeachment, the Senate of the United States will conduct a trial of the charges against the accused. The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court presides over the trial.

What does the phrase to try off impeachments mean?

It means that the official to whom the impeachment applies has the right to a trial. The impeachment alone means nothing; it is only the first part of a two-part phase.

Look at it as though that any citizen after being arrested for a crime still has to be tried for that offense in order to establish guilt or innocence.
