Setup: Image created in blender using image from 2986(>>5546235) to put it onto planes for projecting. I started by dragging in the two pics 3 and 9, deleting everything in scene, and created a plane (or rectangle via edit mode). in edit mode, uv unwrapped the plane over a face on an image0. Created a new cycles material, set it to emission with strength set individually for continuity, ctrl-t to map an image, which is where you choose the image that matches the unwrap.

Distortion happens by manually editing the location of each plane vertex when editing them in the uv image editor, either manually or by scaling along an axis, X for horizontal and Y for vertical. Axis scaling causes a slight distortion in the direction of the scale, and manually moving each vertex allows for more precise manipulation, but at cost of image integrity (in regards to CIA triad). Uniform scaling produces no image distortion.

Analysis based on AG twitter activity within post delta of 1 and 2 days of 2986, allowing for post pic to have been taken during Attorney General's Advisory Committee. Hannity in 8 is included because he was the buzz in the time before 2986. Man in 3 was only image I found before 2986 in any image of relevance. Huber in 10 is included as he is a [player].

1: From an earlier test, is projected on half of cylinder (10 faces, 18 vertices),spans length of pen, projecting horizontal, no scaling distortion.

2: plane as square, some vertical distortion to make face less warped.

4: plane as square, extremely zoomed in on face, little distortion by bringing up bottom left vertex (see 1 an 2 for comparison wrt distortion amount).

3: face from AG Huber retweet on 7 March (https://twitter.com/DUTnews/status/1103780797700624384), subject is second from left. Face reversed on Y (Vertical) axis to orient with perceived face in 124 horizontal pen images. His hair more closely matches that of face in 124, when compared to first from left or fourth from left, as they are only men with red ties in pic.

5: Duplicate of object 1, with entire pen projected vertical, no scaling.

6: plane as rectangle, zoomed in on figures' bust, no scaling.

7: plane as square, vertices manipulated to get a zoomed in face shape. Some distortion, used 5 and 6 as guides.

8: plane as square, image of Hannity via online image search "Hannity yellow tie", since he had been in the buzzing before and after 2986.

9: plane as square, vertices manipulated to get a zoomed in face and upper bust shape, to more match proportion in 9, while keeping 5 and 6 as guides.

10: face from AG Huber tweet on 8 March (https://twitter.com/USAttyHuber/status/1104104287905275904).
