I think these are Twitter emotes people use to denote breaking news.

I think it refers to the thingy that used to show up on Drudge when a really big story was breaking.

The actual tweet is below. The twitter emoticons came across as text descriptors rather than icons.

It’s just a text version of the pictures on the tweet.

BTW, twitter flags it as a “questionable” tweet.

I think that’s the text translation from using an emoji. It is useful for people who are visually impaired when they using text to speech software to read electronic text.

The revolving light is from the opening scene of the TV show Police Squad.

Maybe reference to Drudge’s revolving light on some hot story. Y’know, back when anybody cared what Drudge posted.
