SUBJECT QUOTE
"Donald Trump thinks it's okay to cheat, but I won't allow it in Illinois state government," Pritzker said. "Betting on questions that you already know the answer to is the equivalent of insider trading, and I just won't allow it."

VERDICT · TRUE
The statement is a direct quotation attributed to Governor JB Pritzker from April 23, 2026, as reported by cities929.com. As a verbatim quote, it is factually accurate that he said these words. The content expresses his opinion ("I won't allow it," "I think," "equivalent of insider trading") rather than a verifiable factual claim about objective reality, but the statement itself — that Pritzker said this — is true.
