Just to add a bit more information related to your new thing for October 15:
There has also been only one member of Congress impeached, Senator William Blount, in 1797. Although it is legal to do so, we unlikely to see this ever happen again. You see, to impeach and convict a Congress member, both chambers would have to be involved: the House to impeach, the Senate to convict. But the Constitution gives each chamber the right, by itself, to expel its own members. It’s simpler for ONE chamber to expel its own members than to require BOTH chambers to do the job through the impeachment process. And in fact both chambers have expelled members.
