The network might be gaging him and his staff at the moment.

I have an idea. Let's get HBO-MAX to ditch Bill Maher and do a nightly live show with Kimmel (and possibly including a second hour with Colbert next spring)... Sign on Jon Stewart (likely the next not to have his contract renewed by Paramount+) and you've got the makings of a new live comedy network within a network... HBO-MAX can tell regulators to go to hell, rinse, repeat.

They tend to donate to Dems, now work with Children's Television Workshop and it would be an international audience. Make it a weekly series and there could be interest. Letterman already has a series on there.
