Well, that is cool. I thought I knew what this word meant (removal from power) but I had no idea it originally/primarily meant to throw 'someone out a window.'
Look at me, ma, I'm learnin'!

You are one up on me, my friend. I can’t recall ever hearing the word before at all.
Look at us! We’re learning! 😁
I had only ever heard it in it's out-the-window usage, haha! Also the word for window in French is fenestre, if I recall my elementary French classes correctly. So the window thing makes very good sense to me XD
