Dual Irish/US Citizenship is permitted and is not grounds for revoking US citizenship
https://us.iasservices.org.uk/ie/residency/irish-dual-citizenship/

Ireland does allow dual citizenship.

This means that as a foreign citizen is able to apply for Irish citizenship through birth, descent or naturalisation (as long as they are eligible) and still manage to retain any previous citizenships.

However, it must be noted that certain countries do not allow dual citizenship or else have restrictions on dual citizenship cases, so you must ensure that any of your previous citizenships will allow you to become an Irish dual citizen before applying.

Additionally, it is important to be completely aware of the additional responsibilities that you will take on as a result of applying for dual citizenship, such as potentially having to adhere to an additional set of laws, values and tax burdens.

You can be a dual citizen of both the US and Ireland

Can Americans hold dual citizenship?
Yes. While dual citizenship is not formally recognized in the United States, there is still no legislation against it. Also, in the event of an American taking on responsibilities relating to citizenship elsewhere, he or she will not forfeit his or her original citizenship.
