I have the same error when trying to use the client.
Using python 2.7.11 on Mac 10.11.5
I saw a similar issue here. Perhaps the problem is with homebrew??

Are you able to establish a verified SSL connection to a different host using the Python requests library? Say, https://www.coinbase.com/ or https://www.google.com/ ?

[anthonywittemann]

@aianus Yes, using the python requests library I was able to get an HTTP 200 response to my request. Python terminal pasted below:
import requests
r = requests.get('https://api.github.com/user', auth=('anthonywittemann', 'my_password'))
r.status_code
200

I'm going to close since this is an old issue, but if you are still able to reproduce please open a new one and we'll look into it! Thanks.
