Impossible for white to win in one move. (White will win, eventually)

I give up.

Look again at the edited post.

It doesn't say anything about one move.

That being said, this is not a difficult problem.

Hanging out in flood waters, Cameron Fogg, right, sits by his crab traps as he drinks a beer with Austin Claiborne, 18, left, and Cameron Gomez, center, in Salt Bayou near Slidell, La., on Tuesday, September 15, 2020. Hurricane Sally missed Louisiana, but its effect, such as high water, could be felt along the region. Fogg has lived in this house for 30 years and he said he's getting tired of the recurrence of rising water. (Chris Granger/The Advocate via AP)

Nothing quite like documenting your underage drinking on national media.
