And why are the faces blurred, that would help me determine their age better unless more details are provided other than an account creating potential clickbait.
If they are underage, by law, they have to be blurred.
Under 18 U.S.C. § 3509, the term "child" means a person who is under the age of eighteen who is or is alleged to be a victim of a crime of physical abuse, sexual abuse, or exploitation; or a witness to a crime committed against another person. Section 3509(d) requires that all government employees connected with "a criminal proceeding," all court personnel, the defendant and all employees of the defendant, and all members of the jury: keep all documents that disclose the name or any other information concerning a child in a secure place to which no person who does not have reason to know their contents has access; and
disclose documents described (in the statute) or the information in them that concerns a child only to persons who, by reason of their participation in the proceeding, have reason to know such information.
This is also used against the children, mind you. By withholding their identity, they prevent any protections of the child by outside sources. In other words, if a judge is corrupt they can prevent word of a rape from getting out under the pretenses of "protecting the child's identity", let it pass the statute of limitations, and then toss the case.
Public schools also play by these rules to hide the vast number of sexual assault, rape, and molestation cases that occur. If there's no victim, because "we can't disclose their identity", then there's no crime.
Trump is sending a message. This is the "shot across the bow."
If DeSantis wants to continue to play the game, Trump will show even worse things than this. You open light, and when they don't back down you give them the right hook.
Also, would the one who obtained the image and blurred the photos have any responsibility in the matter if all of it is true?
The photographer would be a witness. Again, statute of limitations means none of this matters outside of public image getting tarnished; and there's currently a really high bar to hit if you're Conservative and don't want to be labeled by Trump as a RINO. Trump has an incredible amount of power in that regard.

All swept right under the rug.
You're missing the forest for the trees here.
