My analysis: it's gotta be made up. TriggerFin has the right idea.
"Playing an ocarina" - perhaps Zelda...
"To summon from the sea" - many things, perhaps Power Rangers.

Which leaves "Ultra-Congress". Which a few people on the Web primarily used as a humorous reaction to "Super Congress" in summer-fall 2011.

The reply to the Tweet: "Justice Mendoza" was a "The West Wing" character, hence the "fuck I loved that TV show" response.
When was the card created? Why is it in "The Reject Pack"? I think you have your answers.
Anyhow, that game owns, and I rule at it
