Republicans need Democrat votes in the House in order to raise the debt ceiling in March. In addition to blocking all remaining trump appointees, the Democrats should make it clear that if the Republicans want the debt ceiling raised, this lawlessness has to stop, musk must be ejected, etc. otherwise, the Republicans will all have to vote to raise the debt ceiling, and there are some Republicans that simply won't vote to do so under any circumstances.
The Republicans are only +3 in the House.
FTFY. There are a few DINOs who sway that “slight” majority into a strong majority.
