The power of impeachment allows Congress to remove federal officials, including the President, from office for committing "high crimes and misdemeanors." This process involves the House of Representatives bringing charges, or articles of impeachment, against the official, followed by a trial in the Senate. If two-thirds of the Senate votes to convict, the official is removed from office. Impeachment serves as a check on executive and judicial power, ensuring accountability for misconduct.
