I disagree with the shutdown being Pelosi's. When the shutdown started the funding bill in question was widely supported by both the Republicans and the Democrats. It passed the Senate 100 votes to 0 and the then Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (IIRC) could've passed it with a similar margin.
Then Trump opened his mouth and said he won't sign it, and either it wasn't voted on in the House or, when the Senate had to vote on it again to confirm it Mich McConnel refused to let the vote happen. The fault lies with the Republicans for not passing the bills in the House until after the handover in Januari when they had plenty of margin to force the President into compliance before.
