White to move.
NB: I’ll hold comments with solutions ’till the next day so there won’t be “spoilers” for others.
IMPORTANT BOOK ALERT
It will make libs wet their pants. It delves into the real meaning of sensus fidei… the sense of the faithful. That’s exactly what the left does not want.

In chess news, the American Cup is underway in St. Louis, GMs Fabiano Caruana, Leinier Dominguez, and Wesley So (yay!) all managed to win their matches on Saturday. The winners’ bracket semifinals at The American Cup will commence on Sunday, March 19, 2023, at 11.00 a.m. PT/20:00 CET. 14 year old Alice Lee is rolling ahead with wins.
My wishlist.
I’m afraid this problem is beyond my calculation horizon. Also, so many candidate moves! I tried 1.Qxf7+ and 1.Qxe8 but couldn’t make them work. So, I tried 1.Bxf7+, Rxf7; 2.Qxe8+, Nxe8; 3. Rxe8+, Rf8; 4.d7 and now I can’t see how to respond to either 4…Qb8 or 4…Qd6.

Same here. I tried a lot of different ideas, and I came up with nothing. I was hoping someone better at this than me would post their solution.
