The House of Representatives has sole authority to bring Articles of Impeachment (like a grand jury indictment) against the President and other government officials. If the House votes in favor of impeachment, the case proceeds to trial in the Senate. No one can be removed from office by impeachment (the first step in the process) alone.
The term "impachent" appears to be a typographical error or a misinterpretation. If you meant "impeachment," it refers to the process by which a legislative body formally charges a government official, such as a president, with misconduct. Impeachment does not remove the official from office but initiates a trial to determine whether they should be removed. If you meant something else, please provide more context.
The House of Representatives has this responsibility and power.
Impeachment is the process by which a legislative body, such as a parliament or congress, formally charges a government official, typically a president or judge, with misconduct or wrongdoing. It is a political process, not a criminal one, and can lead to removal from office if the official is found guilty of the charges. The specific grounds for impeachment vary by jurisdiction but often include treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors. The outcome may involve a trial and a vote to determine whether the official should be removed from office.
After the House of Representatives has voted to impeach a president, the actual trial is conducted by certain members of the House chosen by that body to act as the prosecutor in much the same way that a prosecutor or district attorney conducts trials against people accused of a crime. The Senate serves as the jury in the trial and the Chief Justice of the US serves as the judge who presides over the trial.
An impeachment starts in the House and then the trial moves to the senate.

If the House votes in favor of impeachment, the case proceeds to trial in the Senate. No one can be removed from office by impeachment (the first step in the process) alone.
If you are talking about impeachment, the Senate tries the president and can convict him of impeachment charges passed by the House. If the president actually committed a crime, he could be indicted, tried and convicted by the court system like any other citizen.

The House of Representatives holds the sole power of impeachment .
Impeachment is the process by which a legislative body formally levels charges against a high official of government for misconduct. In the United States, the House of Representatives has the sole power to impeach, while the Senate holds the trial to determine whether to remove the official from office.
The US Congress has this power. The House of Representatives starts the impeachment proceedings but the Senate has the final vote.
By the Constitution, the U.S. Senate tries impeachments, presided over by the Chief Justice of the United States. A grand jury is an assembly of citizens to consider probable cause to bring ordinary charges, and has nothing to do with the constitutional process of impeachment.
