President Trump got the go-ahead to build that wall. No,bride strangled sex video not that one — the one on the coast of his County Clare golf course in Ireland.
The "wall" is actually two walls along the country's Western coast, running more than 2,000 feet on one side and 550 feet on the other. The council approved construction Thursday as "coastal erosion management" in a revised development proposal for the course.

Last year, officials rejected a larger, 15-foot-tall wall that ran just under 2 miles along the beach. All these wall proposals pushed environmentalists and locals to fight the course, but at least this latest approval is a subtle win for climate scientists.

Politico reviewed an application last year that justified the wall because of erosion from changing weather.

Thursday's approval of the wall was met with outcry. Wildlife experts and conservation groups derided the decision that is expected to damage the dunes in the area. Ireland's Green Party Leader Eamon Ryan tweeted his disappointment, saying the walls will "interfere with the natural circulation of the dune system."

A petition to stop the wall garnered over 100,000 signatures, but didn't stop the modified walls from passing through the local council.
