All impeachment power under the constitution is invested in Congress. The House votes for “articles of impeachment”, which if passed the person is “impeached”. A subsequent trial takes place in the senate. If the person is found guilty there by 2/3 majority, he is removed from office.

Ya, ya, ya.
We already know all that.
I'm looking for alternatives
Congress finds it hard to get rid of one of their own for the very reason that "We The People" might once again regain power over them.
Give me alternatives, not the obvious methods that we and "Congress" are already aware of.

We will soon retake the House and the Senate. Just sayin’.
