IBM bought SoftLayer around 2012, so IBM Cloud/Softlayer are one in the same. The SoftLayer brand is still heavily referenced as all of IBM Cloud's infrastructure is built on top of SoftLayer. Their Washington DC facility is based out of Equinix in Ashburn, VA.
If that Q post is referencing that IP address it would have still been registered to SoftLayer in 2018 and since it's a public cloud the likelihood that that IP address hasn't changed in 5 years is slim to none (slim left town); not to mention the chans would have scanned it right away.
I'm running a port scan against that IP address right now. Will edit this post if there is anything of significance.
Any ideas what it means in reference to the Q post tho? Like maybe something nefarious was captured over that IP address to catch a certain top 10 player?
That would be a solid guess. I'd also guess a top 10 player on the WHs most wanted listed, like a Clinton or Podesta or somebody, was caught using that IP doing something like pedo or email dumping or something.
"here now" - maybe team Q nabbed someone in Feb 2018, busted for an activity captured at that IP. Bush and McCain died shortly after.

I think Bill is a top 10 player so maybe they're saying they have him.
