The word you're probably looking for is "impeachment", though technically the impeachment process is only part of it (after being impeached by the House of Representatives, the President must then be convicted by the Senate).
Under the US Constitution, the House of Representatives approves impeachment by voting to bring specific charges against the President or any other federal officeholder. Once the impeachment is approved by the House, the Senate hears the charges and votes on whether the charges are proved or not. Although the term "impeachment" has been mistakenly understood to mean complete removal from office, impeachment is actually just the formal charging by the House not the ultimate trial on the charges. State impeachment processes are generally similar, but there may be differences depending how their individual constitutions and laws are written.
No Us President has been removed from office via the impeachment process. There have been two presidents who have been impeached. In 1868, Andrew Johnson was impeached by the House for violating certain statutes related to government processes; in 1998, Bill Clinton was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice. However, neither of these presidents was convicted by the Senate, so neither of them was removed from office.
The role that the senate has in the impeachment process is sole power to try-to judge, sit as a court-in impeachment cases.
The legislative branch holds the powers of impeachment of the President. The House of Representatives is tasked with bringing forth charges. The Senate is tasked with holding the trial of impeachment.
No president has been convicted. Two were tried but both were acquitted of the impeachment charges.
The House of Representatives brings charges, indicts (in DITES) or impeaches a president. It is only an accusation. The Senate's job is to convict the president and sentence him or her. Several presidents have been impeached, but none have ever been convicted.

Only 1 did
Richard Nixon was NOT impeached. He resigned before the House had an opportunity to file articles of impeachment against him, to avoid the inevitable. Only two presidents have been impeached, that is, formal charges brought them: Andrew Johnson and William J. Clinton. Both Presidents were acquitted at their Senate trials.

None. Two presidents: Bill Clinton and Andrew Johnson were impeached by the House of representatives, which is the equivalent of bringing charges against someone. Both of them were acquitted (found not guilty, essentially) in trials in the Senate.
