Twisted has an IRC client (in twisted.words), and it supports SSL.

There is an example in the documentation, just remember to do reactor.connectSSL instead of reactor.connectTCP.

If you don't want Twisted, there is also the Python IRC library, which I notice has SSL support in the latest release.

irc3 support ssl (via asyncio) https://irc3.readthedocs.org/

How simple? Chatzilla supports SSL and as any Mozilla Platform applications, allows using Python. https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Python

On second thought, that probably is a total overkill. A second on Ali's answer, Twisted will do.
