IMPEACHMENT is an awesome power constitutionally vested in the Congress. It is shared by the House of Representatives, which has the exclusive power to initiate and prosecute impeachment cases, and the Senate, which has the sole power to try and decide such cases.

For better or for worse, impeachment can reverse the electoral will when an elected official like the president is removed or it can negate the appointing power of the president when a presidential appointee like a justice of the Supreme Court is ousted.
