  White can safely resign. He is down 2 pieces without compensation and Black has a passed pawn.
  
  Now, Black's King is not secure, so if the White Q could get a check in, it is possible the Queen and Bishop could be a threat. However, I see nothing here that makes me think White can get anything going.
  
  So `Qc4` to keep the Queen close to the action while keeping an eye on `g8` to prevent castling. This pins the Knight on `b4` though I don't know that it matters much.
  
  If White gets time, he could consider `Kf2`. This will connect the White rooks in preparation for Rfd1, after which White shoves the d-pawn down Black's gullet. If Black takes it, all the better.
  
  But White really is doomed.
